Yes.

ezmlm-make -+b /var/qmail/alias/list

The -e option sets the flags to what is named on the command line.  The
-+ option modifies the current flags by the options given on the command
line.

Note that any time you run ezmlm-make -e or -+, it will overwrite some
of the files.  In particular, the editor, manager, moderator, bouncer,
and confirmer files are always overwritten, as are a few others.
