This is a bug (typo) in List::send_to_listmaster().
Here is a patch :
*** src/List.pm 2001/09/26 16:00:38     1.156
--- src/List.pm 2001/09/28 13:55:59     1.157

      }elsif ($operation eq 'request_list_creation') {
        my $list = new List $param[0];
  
!       $list->send_file('create_list_request', $Conf{'listmaster'}, 
$Conf{'host'}
                         {'to' => "listmaster\@$Conf{'host'}",
                          'email' => $param[1]});

      }elsif ($operation eq 'request_list_creation') {
        my $list = new List $param[0];
  
!       $list->send_file('create_list_request', $Conf{'listmaster'}, 
$Conf{'host'},
                         {'to' => "listmaster\@$Conf{'host'}",
                          'email' => $param[1]});

If you are listmaster, there is no notification sent to listmaster.
