thanks, that did the trick. As a follow-up now I wonder how I can determine 
if that setting has been changed. The "config_list -o" command doesn't seem 
to print it!? I'm a bit worried that there may be time bombs, i.e. lists 
that have been misconfigured when that GUI option still existed. The way it 
is now I wouldn't even be able to confirm that, it seems.
