adding it manually? if SSH is applicable I can make a script to do it
automatically..

If you have the site admin password, you can log in and administer any list you want. You don't have to have the list admin password. Moreover, logging in and controlling things depends only on the admin password, and not whether your e-mail address is listed as one of the official owners. Anyone with the listowner or site admin password can get in, regardless.


However, this doesn't do anything for notifications. If you want to be explicitly listed as a listowner for every list, and get all the appropriate listowner notices, then you will actually need to go in and add yourself as a listowner to each and every list.

There are command-line tools that you can use to help make this process a lot easier, but I don't think there are any pre-written tools to do exactly what you want. I think you could get there using a "withlist" script, however.

FAQ 4.09 at <http://wiki.list.org/x/z4A9> details the various command-line tools that you have available to you as a site administrator. Try looking at those, and searching the archives and the FAQ Wiki to see examples of how to use some of them -- like withlist.
