TEXT/PLAIN (17 lines)
Some  people are misleaded by the standard name owner-list_name to think
that it is the address of the list owner. (instead of list_name-request).
Anyway, the name owner-list suggests that this is the owner's address.

There is no much problem with that on older list settings, but if the
list is set to Auto-Delete=Full-Auto, and Renewal=,,,Probe ,
then if someone is trying to send a message to the list owner using the
owner-* address, the message will be discarded without any notification to
the poster.

Is there an elegant way to set a different name as the bounces address,
but that it is still be monitored by Listserv?
I believe that I can put there a different address which will be defined
as an alias to owner-* , but I believe that the problem is enough general.
