(Follow-up, if needed, via lstown-l, not lstsrv-l).

I believe that the list headers SENDER= and REPLY-TO= will assist you.

Furthermore, I have found that the following keywords might also be of
value in a "group" ownership configuration:

* SEND= PRIVATE
* OWNER= primary_owner_rfc822_address,(listname)
* NOTEBOOK= (as appropriate)

NB-- the parens around (listname) are required

The "beauty" of such an arrangement is that one owner/subscriber can
alter the distribution options (or even subscribe/unsubscribe) of
another, ESPECIALLY when one owner is not available e.g., vacations,
other business, etc.  (Of course this assumes "trust" among the owners,
but that should not be a stretch within the context of the purpose of
that list.)

The archives provide the history, or allow one to "catch-up" to current
events or previous answers.

SET listname NOMAIL FOR unavilable_owner@host
SET listname MAIL
S * IN listname since TODAY-3
