Developers of Sympa

[Olivier Salaün <address@concealed>]

Hi Mark,

Sylvain Amrani will be the right person to react on your changes, since 
he implemented the automatic lists feature and wrote this part of the 
documentation. I hope he is in the sympa-dev list.

Anyhow, thanks for taking the time to update the manual.
