At USC, we have the reverse as policy.  I make it perfectly clear
to the listowner that the listowner (or primary listowner,
if more than one) is the ultimate, final authority on the list, including
the contents of the list, and the list options (within acceptable parameters).
Subscribers, if they refuse to accept this, may set up their own list,
on their own systems.   (Lists at USC are set up for the benefit of
USC staff, faculty, and students, and must have a USC listowner).
In other words, lists do not belong to the subscribers.
