[Mailman-Users] Sending to multiple lists problem

Hi,
	I can only put one address in either the to: cc: or bcc: fields for the
mailing lists to each get a copy of the message, but If I add more than
one list per field, only one of them gets the message.

Any more help would be appreciated.

thanks
Nick
