What were you trying to do?
   add a member to a mailing list of which I am the administrator.

What's wrong:
   listmaint would not accept the address: daniele.pagani@mirsa.inria.fr
   it reported an illegal character.  I assume it is talking about the period
   in the name.  The olc consultant agreed.

What should have happened:
   listmaint should have taken it.  This is a legitimate address.  It works 
   fine when I use it outside of the list.  The olc consultant suggested I
   send a bug report.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
