My timing was off. I had e-mailed by list's system manager twice many days ago with the same questions I had here, but didn't get a response from him. I assumed my mail was getting through to him for whatever reason and posted here. Just after I did, I finally received email from him, as well as the mystery listowner doc that isn't suppose to exist. Anyway, he's taken care of all my questions. Guess I panicked. Thanks, MJ
