Re:
-> This isn't just a matter of editing a few lines in an aliases file. The

Our Moira (part of DECathena) generates the aliases with a "owner-<listname>"
alias for each list. Here is an example excerpt from our aliases
file which is generated from Moira:
owner-santee: kdd
santee: mkots1::bourgault, ranger::wells, pcbuoa::beaudreau,
xcusme::tomas, MKOTS4::HAGERTY, MKOTS4::VACHON,
ranger::macintyre, kdd
(the double-colon addresses are internal DECnet mail addresses)
Everytime you define a list in Moira, you specify an owner (which can be a
user or a list). This is used to construct the "owner-<listname>" alias.
I thought the MIT Moira did the same thing.
