My isp (Verizon DSL) has a cap on how many mails I can send a day. Something
like 100. Well, my site has been down for a while, and since it's going back
up soon, I want to send a mass mailing to about 2000 people. My isp does not
allow relaying, so I can't use my domains smtp in outlook or outlook
express. My question, is, is it stlil considered relaying if my computer is
the SMTP Server? Would I be able to setup the SMTP locally and be able to
send to my mailing list?

Any help greatly appreciated.
