Either way will work. Setting up a list to which all the other lists are
subscribed would seem to give you the most control (especially as to who
can post to it!) and be easiest to manage. Although your address will
always appear in the From: header, note that whether you subscribe the
Mj list alias or the outgoing alias to the "master list" will determine
who the message sender appears to be, i.e. subscribing Mj aliases will
make them appear to be sent by the individual lists and subscribing
outgoing aliases will make them appear to be sent by the master list.
