If the aliases file has
# STANZA START: hrca_board
# CREATED: Wed Jan 16 13:30:03 2008
[EMAIL PROTECTED] hrca_board
...
when you really want
# STANZA START: board
then I think that the string "hrca_board" must be in the list
configuration file somewhere, and that is why you are getting that
string as the list name. As you wrote, changing the aliases file
works, but the changes can be redone by Mailman.
Then, as I was typing this reply I noticed that if this list were named
"board", then you would have two lists with the same name. Even if the
names are in different virtual domains, you cannot have two lists
with the same name in Mailman 2.1.9. I am not sure if this restriction
will be removed in 2.1.10. So, one list will have to remain
"hrca_board" if the other list is named "board".
