I have forwarded notes to the tech at netshooter. The best way to do
things is likely via a simple PHP script that would allow someone to
maintain the [EMAIL PROTECTED] email address forwarding.
The file that Sendmail uses looks like this (BIND reads the file and
distributes it to redundant email servers, but sendmail does the actual
email forwarding):
postmaster HS TXT "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
mailer-daemon HS TXT "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
root HS TXT "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
sudhir HS TXT "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
majordomo HS TXT "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
majordomo-owner HS TXT "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
owner-majordomo HS TXT "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
...etc... - there is also the references for this mailing list.
The PHP script could be as simple as a program that manipulates a text
file with me just writing a simple PERL script to convert to the above
format (Doing a bit of security paranoia and validation on the file).

Note: This is someone that should know other list members as they would
be the one that would need to 'verify' that a change in forwarding came
from the actual member and not someone else ;-)
