        I for one would greatly appreciate being able to hide a number
of listowner addresses.  I gather from what Eric says above that
adding this feature wouldn't be easy, but I've come to think that he
can do almost ANYTHING, and I'd like to suggest that this feature
would be quite useful. I have accounts on three computers.  I'd like
to be able to send listowner mail from all three, but I really want to
receive mail ABOUT my list only at my main account.  For other
reasons, I don't want to forward all my mail to that account.  Also, I
have assistants who help with listowner functions from time to time.
They, too, should be not merely "quiet" but invisible.  So a true
"hide" feature for listowners would be most welcome.
