No.  Blat sends e-mails as e-mails.

The downside is that I don't think one can post to a MeWe group by 
sending an e-mail.  But I would be using MeWe for the replacement group.

Let me know if I should create one!!  I haven't seen any message (yet?) 
from the current group owner about him officially moving the group to 
another service.

We should hurry though, at this point!
