Usually I complain about users and kids that always manage to do the 
impossible, but this time I managed it myself.

I've a list on my system starting with " " and I cannot remove it.

# /usr/local/mailman/bin/list_lists -b | grep "^ "
  mystupidlist

I tried

rmlist ' mystupidlist'
rmlist " mystupidlist"
rmlist "\ mystupidlist"
rmlist \ mystupidlist

without success. Always a error like:

No such list: \ mystupidlist


any idea?

thnx,
peter
