Although sometimes with .org domains the members of the orgainzation take the
term in the more traditional sense.  I've come to think of it in the functional
sense.  After I send the message it will be stored on my machine as a file.  Now
we all know that in the technical sense it is really nothing like the files in
my office cabinet.  In the functional sense it is exactly like the files in my
cabinet.  A Listowner has all the function of ownership.
 
It's all really just a matter of definitions.  Page 7 of the 1.8b owners manual
gives the LSOFT definition of owner.  It may not be the same that's in
Webster's, but then that is why they defined the term.
