And verily didst Bror Hellman spake of these matters:

I'll assume we are talking about SMail 3 and not SMail 2.

Primarily, the only problem is in how Smail interprets bracketed
addresses in an alias :include: file.  The solution is either to
enable the listname.strip option or hack Majordomo to put a comma
at the end of each line.

I'm running SMail 3.1.28, and the "-t" works just fine.  It just 
retrofitted 1.62 with it because I haven't done 1.92 yet, and it
works great.
