Why not make the outgoing list alias a configurable option in
list.config like:
# list_alias [string] ($LIST-outgoing) <majordomo>
# The sendmail alias for the outgoing mailing list
#
list_alias = mylist-xyz-hidden
# digest_alias [string] ($LIST-digest-outgoing) <digest>
# The sendmail alias for the outgoing mailing list
#
list_alias = mydigest-xyz-hidden
