Thanks Jeremy! Yeah, I was surprised to see the website didn't even have screen shots of the list manager's configuration pages. I'm still looking for someone with a dead list that I can see what is actually available.
And on the private replies -- I'm on about 6 different mailing lists. On some of them, typically ones without archiving, people like private replies to keep down the number of incoming messages. If anyone wanted similar info, I would be glad to pass it on to them.
