	INSTALL -file, paragraph 7 speaking of 'mydomain'
	Also note paragraph 8 speaking of 'localnames' file.

	This is more hairy situation.
	It does the suppression in case the lists are ZMailer internal, but
	if any of them involves running external programs (i.e. Majordomo),
	they are entirely separate entities.

	To answer fully, I do need to know your list setup.  Are the lists
	in the  $MAILSHARE/lists/ -directory, or somewhere else ?  If they
	are elsewere, where ? How ?
