Assuming you mean what TB calls 'Lists', I never tried to create a
nested one, but I just tried, and it allowed me to...

These are real lists, so I don't want to spam these people by testing,
but it looks like it will work...

I'll test with some test addresses I have for things like this a little
later when I have more time(Mondays are busy around here)...

No, I know it does require that members of lists be actual entries in
one of your Address Books...

I'll freely admit Address Books is one area that needs some love - and
as I said, it is getting some (finally), though the full rewrite (where
it changes from a Mork DB backend to SQLite) will probably take a while...

If these particular features are deal breakers, then for now, I'd stay
with what is working...
