I've always used the "topica" news lists in email-digest format. I've
never had any problems and see no need to discontinue Topica.....

Here's the best reason to move away from Topica. These are the logs
from my personal server attempting to send my last message to
Topica. Topica's incoming mail servers are down more than they are up.

I have a special rule set up to retry sending mail sent to Topica much
more often than most systems attempt.

Most mail systems only retry once every 30-90 minutes, so at best this
message would have taken 5 hours to get through if I my box were
running "standard" rules for Topica. My messages always come through
quickly, but that's because I force it to happen.
