The error messages aren't documented in detail anywhere. They are
*supposed* to be self explanitory. The only way to get more
information is to look at the scripts themselves.

In this case, the message is supposed to be

Error: Illegal list name: list_posting_address

Where list_posting_address is [EMAIL PROTECTED], and the error is
issued because this is not a valid email address according to
Utils.ValidateEmail which means either it contained one or more spaces
or the emailhost part did not contain at least two dot-separated
pieces, i.e., [EMAIL PROTECTED] is OK, [EMAIL PROTECTED] is not.

emailhost depends on the setting of VIRTUAL_HOSTS_OVERVIEW and is
either DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST or the email host corresponding to the url
host of the create page fron the VIRTUAL_HOSTS dictionary.
