Although the list server, majordomo, will at some point be down, your ability to receive and send mail will not. However, at some point, when your account has been switched over, you may have email left on the old server. After the switch, all ford-trucks.com addresses will be sent instructions for retrieving left over mail on the old server (its a 5 minute procedure that works with any email software and is non technical).
