We (at Bomis) do have another server that could run the mailing lists
that is almost unrelated to wikipedia. It's the server that wikipedia
started out on, which still hosts some of the old UseMod wikis.
I haven't spoken to Jimmy about this, but I think he was considering
allowing wikipedia to use the server to host the mailing lists.

I don't think we'd have the same control there, and I don't think we could
make the move transparent.
What we'd like to be able to do is just set up mailman on the other
location, change our DNS records to point to the new machine as
the mail server for the
wikipedia.org domain, and let mail move over there
automatically as the new DNS gets picked up.
