It is best not to send one message to two mailing lists. Anyone who replies, and is only on one of the lists, will get a rejection from the other list.
I finally ported my old home phone to VoIP.ms, and installed their softphone on my cell phone. FYI,
Do any of these VOIP providers (ITSPs) offer secure connections? Do the softphones support these protocols? One obvious protocol is SRTP but if I remember correctly, its key handling was not useful. These days, HTTPS functions as a secure transport protocol that firewalls let through. Unfortunately, it does not normally authenticate the client side. It could do so seamlessly by requiring client certificates, but that's an obscure feature that almost nobody knows how to configure (including me).
