The client is trying to send to the address "Administrativeón of system
and configurati" instead of some address like "listname at example.com"

This is strictly a mail client issue. It has nothing to do with Mailman
as far as I can see.


I do not understand what "the client has set the name of the big
personal information does not commands" means, but perhaps this has
something to do with it.

Are you saying the list name is "Administrativeón of system and
configurati..."?  If so, the list name can't contain spaces, but there
is no Mailman limitation on the length of the listname.
