Robert,

Angle Brackets are added to users.lst, when one uses the Web Interface to
modify the list addresses.  If you use IMail Admin, or subscribe via email,
they are not added. IMail does NOT automatically alphabetize the users.lst
file, it always adds new addresses to the end of the file. IMail will work
correctly regardless of the angle brackets.

If your addresses are as you indicate (with spaces between the brackets and
the address), then that is the problem. No spaces are allowed in the
users.lst file. Each address in the list is on a line by itself (which means
each address is folowed by <CRLF>).
