Hi Brock,

   Mail to listname-owner addresses are still greylisted and then scanned by
our MTA before delivery. This kills about 99% for us. To prevent list ham from
getting marked as spam, we just added some rules to our spamassassin .cf files
to adjust the weighting on valid headers known to come from MJ.

   Even if you change the default listname-owner address, it is still a widely
published address to every subscriber. So I don't think it will be the
solution you need.

HTH,
Alex
