Hi, the following code will not handle two lists with identical local
part ( ie. address@concealed and address@concealed ):

my $l = $list->{'name'};
$param->{'which_info'}{$l}{'subject'} = $list->{'admin'}{'subject'};
$param->{'which_info'}{$l}{'host'} = $list->{'admin'}{'host'};
$param->{'which_info'}{$l}{'info'} = 1;

Any suggestions on work-around? How about using join("@",
$list->{'name'},$list->{'admin'}{'host'}) as the list name?
