I am also working on a scipt that will create all required files,
configure, add members to the new list, and create sendmail aliases.
Anyone with suggestions on other bits of functionality, feel free to drop
me a note.  I don't know when it will be ready, but I'm hoping for
sometime in the next few weeks. (I don't get a chance to work on it very
often...)  The idea is to eventually have a web-based interface for users
to create their own lists with minimal SysAdmin intervention.

Best regards,
Brian

  UNIX *is* user friendly.  It's just selective about who its friends are.
