Nope. 

SYNOPSIS
       ezmlm-make  [  -+  ][ -a..zABD..Z ][ -C03..9 arg ] dir [ dot local host
       [digestcode] ]

DESCRIPTION
       ezmlm-make sets up a new mailing list, [EMAIL PROTECTED], along  with  several
       extra addresses to handle administrative requests.

I.e., what you want is 

ezmlm-make -rdugm -5 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/list ~/.qmail-list list host.com

In addition, you will have to tell qmail that all mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] should be 
delivered to the user for whom you're setting up the mailing list. I've found that 
this is easiest done by adding proper entries in /var/qmail/users/assign. See 
qmail-newu(8) and qmail-users(5). 

I've heard recommendations about setting up a virtual domain for all lists. This is 
probably a better approach, especially if you plan on running many lists, but using 
qmail-users works just fine for me.

Hope this helps. 

Regards,
Henrik.
