There is a way to allow multiple email address to post to a list. I'm not
sure if it can be done with elmz or not, but I do know I post to a list with
multiple email addresses, but it all gets sent to just one address. It's a
closed list, but I've setup the preferences for my account to allow posts
from my work account, home account, and website account.
