Hostgator uses mailman to provide mailing list features. So I used it to set

am looking for the lists to work as a multiple destination alias (which
hostgator doesn¹t appear to support) rather than a real list.

The way to do this is to go into Privacy/Sender Filters and set it so that the default non-member action is Accept.

However, depending on your preferences, this may not be all you will want to do with this.

In order to let through absolutely everything, you'll also want to set the maximum message size to 0, set it to not care how many recipients there are to a message, and set it not to care whether or not the list name is in the To or Cc fields of the message. The first of these is in the general options (I think), and the others are in the recipient filters in the privacy section.

I've had to set up such a list myself recently and ran into a few of these gotchas. I think that perhaps I also had to set something else but I forget now what it might have been.
