You could actually test on the same news server for sending out the 
traffic, but you still need that independent verification test, to see 
how things look once they get off that local server.

You need to do more than just the loopback test, although the loopback 
test is where you start.

We'll keep that in mind.  And if Skip wants to move forward on setting 
this up on a schedule that is tough for the members of the postmaster 
team to assist with, then of course he's certainly free to contact you 
for that assistance.

That's a decision I'll leave up to him.
