The other server admin at work is pulling some real stupidity.

We have a discussion email list running on a server. You have to subscrobe to the list to post to or get emails from it. Our distributors use it mainly as to let people know when they need some inventory to serve customers. Kind of share inventory around. There are 150 members, and 120 of them are NOT members of our domain.

The admin guy did some changes to our hosted anti-spam which stopped anyone from being able to deliver to the list server. Instead of fixing the settings on the anti-spam server. He wants to change the discussion list to a Microsoft Teams site That means we would have to give 120 users guest team licenses to access the site. ie $200/mo Our curent list servier is a free copy of CommunigatePro. AND I think the distributors will quit using it because you have to have a teams app open to keep up with the list instead of the postings coming to their email. Now there are only 4 or 5 posts a week. Not worth keeping another app open.

I think it is a stupid mistake made by someone that just thinks way too much of this teams crap.
The several times I have tried to discuss things in the teams site for our IT department people just make wisecracks or post silly memes instead of actually trying to discuss and issue. Its like it was facebook.
So even the people in IT are not using teams, they just emall each other.
