Well, a lot will depend on your specific mail server and mailing list 
configuration, but I certainly don't see any reason why you can't run

Trend Micro has announced that they will cancel the stop.mail-abuse.org
mail forwarding service as of 15 November 2006.  If you have an old
e-mail account for me at this domain, please make sure you correct that
with the current address.
