Many webhosting companies will have a 'catch all' mailbox which
accepts mail for any email address sent to a domain, so
[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], and [EMAIL PROTECTED] will
all go to the same mailbox.  So you don't need access to the
/etc/aliases file; you can do it via .procmailrc or other means.

(Side point: qmail has really nice support for user mailing
 lists, but my webhost isn't running qmail.)
