I don't mean the automatic password reminders, I have already turned
these for the account as you describe below. The problem is that anyone
can go to the member options page and request that a password reminder
be sent by clicking the Remind button.

I suppose that your suggestiong about setting the umbrella_list option
would do what I was asking for but it would also have the side effect of
making it impossible for everyone else on the list to get password
reminders and other notifications. Ideally I would be able to set an
admin address for an individual account, instead using admin addresses
globally with a suffix. Is there any way to do this? Thanks
