A little bit out of topic, if you like, you can plan to build your own hosting with own web and mail server using ISPConfig 3.2 Perfect Server automated script on Hetzner with roughly below 5 euro per month though I know this could be tougher for some but free support is also available at their HowToForge forum too.

If its working as is then I'd suggest you stop tinkering with it  :wink:

Quote from: D.M. – All mails that get delivered as a newsletter eg. a mail that is with the same text/subject forwarded to multiple different addresses gets marked as spam and blocked

That is known as a "distribution list".. that is what I asked Spuds to clarify (I didn't think that's how EA worked, but to be sure), and no, EA sends out individual emails, not send a single email and a list of recipients for the mail server to send it to.. 

So that never was an issue..
