This means that you can't have someone as a fill-in listowner, set to quiet, with access to the errors and other administrivia unless you go to extra pains to set it up that way. You can put in a specific address for the Errors= keyword, so what you could do is have a separate account, only for errors and request items, put in that address for the Errors= keyword and make it the first listed owner, all others being quiet. The fill-in person can then log in to that account at need and take care of things without being bothered with the stuff in his/her regular account. Keep in mind, those things have to go somewhere, so you really should have someone dealing with them while you are gone, even if it's only to delete them as they come in so the account doesn't get clogged. The really serious errors will continue so you can take care of them when you get back. If you want to leave your address as that which gets the errors and the "requests" but allow the quiet fill-in person to have access to the stuff, well, umm, give 'em the password to your account.
