I could... but would need to figure out how to do that... but I still need it
to hand the message off to the actual program...
I set up a .qmail file in /home/listar with the contents
of: "| /home/listar/listar"
And now I get the following error returned by email:
</home/listar/listar"@gluon.arachnerd.org>:
Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1)
What do I need to do to get qmail to hand email off to the program itself? Is
there some command I need to invoke to hand messages off to an application?
Thanks.

I'm currently using listar on another system for a big list of subscribers, and
it has an easy to use web gui that assists with managing the lists. Plus, its
already in RPM form, something mailman and ezmlm are not, and I'm not yet ready
to compile RPM's from source...
