You can see what a list should look like thanks to the document
"mon_premier_doc.pdf" provided with your groff install.
On my debian system it is present at
/usr/share/doc/groff/examples/mom/mon_premier_doc.pdf.gz
In case you do want to modify the spacing you can follow the documentation:
- locally at file:///usr/share/doc/groff-base/html/mom/docelement.html#list
- online at http://www.schaffter.ca/mom/momdoc/docelement.html#list
> Creating a similar document with mm (with the .BL macro) resulted in
proper spacing.
