The UI aspect does appear to have wandered off.  However, using
~/bin/config_list reveals:

  # Set this to yes when this list is intended to cascade only to other
  # mailing lists.  When set, meta notices like confirmations and password
  # reminders will be directed to an address derived from the member's
  # address - it will have the value of "umbrella_member_suffix" appended
  # to the member's account name.
  #
  # legal values are:
  #    0 = "No"
  #    1 = "Yes"
  umbrella_list = 0

Barry;  Whazzup with the UI?
