cp -pR ~sympa/expl/somelist ~sympa/expl/newlist  create the new list :

Then, you just need to create the aliases that can be done the way you 
want but if Sympa is fully installed :

~sympa/bin/alias_manager.pl  add  <listname> <domain>  where the 
listname is the local part of the list email and domain the domain part 
do the stuff.
