I'm not the only one; this has come up in majordomo-users and
majordomo-workers and honestly I arrived at my current belief after arguing
the point with others.
Anyway, that's my complaint about 2142: it specifies all kinds of addresses
to use in contacting various personnel but neglects to specify
unequivocally how to reach list owners (which is, after all, the subject of
this thread). And then there's 1211. I've seen arguments stating that it
requires that -request go to a human. Sigh.

That's just the way it (currently) suggests Sendmail aliases; others have
talked about figuring out how to make that configuration mandatory (by
actually bouncing mail off of the aliases) but I think that would be both a
waste of code and needlessly constraining. Given this confusion I'll
probably make a site config controlling whether the suggested aliases point
-request at the owner or at the list software. This really seems to be the
only reasonable choice.
