Re: bfteam config fixed

I have saved today's message-that-shouldn't-be-there on joseki in the
mailbox file ~mlmgr/bfteam-msg.  It has two X-BeenThere: headers.
Mailman has added both headers so it has passed through Mailman's
processing for both.

  X-BeenThere: address@hidden
  X-BeenThere: address@hidden

This is the daily "requests waiting" message:

  The address@hidden mailing list has 5 request(s) waiting for your
  consideration at:

With this information I would say that the "list moderator" address
gets the daily "requests waiting" message but the "list administrator"
address does not.  (I really need to start reading the Mailman code
itself to determine these things instead of all of the experimentation
to determine the behavior.)

But now I don't understand why those other many lists that are
apparently configured the same way with listhelper-moderate in the
"list moderator" field are not also generating a daily "requests
waiting" messages to the list-moderate address?  Do they really not
have any requests waiting?  Is the bfteam instantiation simply the
first one that I noticed behaving this way?

Don't make any large changes due to this discussion yet.  For one I
would like to see if any of those other lists also show up with the
daily "requests waiting" message passed through the
listhelper-moderate path.  It would make sense if they do.  If not
then I can look to see why not.  Either way I learn something.

For another since this is something that only I am complaining about I
think it is only right that I do the work for it.  I don't want to
distract you from your normal workload of never ending things to do.
This would be a good delegation of work to me.

And also I am starting to learn about the Mailman command line
interface and so I think there might be some easy ways to make these
kinds of changes programmatically.  It would be useful to know this
for other unrelated future issues that come up.
