|Oh, Pete, how could you? That's for errors. I am,

Now in my experience, it is not 100% guaranteed that list-owners continue
to exist for a specific list -- either the list is broken, they have
moved on, or just don't know how to handle such things. SOOO, then all
else fails, *then*
OWNER-LISTSERV@hostdomain
would seem to me to be an acceptable attempt at resolving the MULTIPLE
issues. And since we are talking about LISTSERV(R), I don't think I need
to further qualify the multiple mailing list managers' various forms of
generic addressing, though certainly some have documented some of the
various MLM commands:
