I am not trying to set multiple owners in the list configuration;
I know the syntax for that. What I am trying to do is use the
/usr/sbin/newlist
command, which allows ONLY ONE e-mail address to be specified when
the code prompts me for the e-mail address of the list owner
Enter the email of the person running the list:
I want to be able to enter the e-mail addresses of ALL of the list
owners, so that they all receive the list-creation e-mail that contains,
among other things, the list admin password. I can only specify one
address, so I tried a test specifying
listname-ow...@lists.example.com
to see if that would work. After the list is created, mail to that
address will be sent to all of the list owner e-mail addresses that are
currently in the list configuration. The question is one of timing -
when I run the newlist command, the owner addresses have not been
set. That command sets the owner addresses to the single address that
I specified in response to the prompt. My subsequent
config_list -i
command sets the list owner addresses, but I cannot insure that my
/usr/sbin/newlist
command will not have sent the e-mail before the list owners have been
set.
