I wouldn't expect that there would be an internal problem with long 
list names in Mailman, but your MTA might have length limitations on 
the left-hand-side of aliases, if you're using aliases to route 
e-mail via the MTA into Mailman.

Where's it barfing?  What's in the logs?

Trend Micro has announced that they will cancel the stop.mail-abuse.org
mail forwarding service as of 15 November 2006.  If you have an old
e-mail account for me at this domain, please make sure you correct that
with the current address.
