Hmm.. 41?  That's plausible.  Note that Listserv needs to fit the
address, the 'fullname', and some number of flags into 100 characters
total.

To the Listserv guys:  Note that RFC1123, section 2.1, says:

     Host software MUST handle host names of up to 63 characters and
     SHOULD handle host names of up to 255 characters.

That's just to the right of the '@' - you need to allow room on the
left too ;)
