I know, which is why I was a little concerned to find them there. The entries
were created using the newlist command in the ~mailman/bin directory... which
gives this output:

Entry for aliases file:

## foo mailing list
## created: 08-Aug-2001 stuart
foo:                     "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post foo"
foo-admin:               "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner foo"
foo-request:             "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd foo"
foo-owner:               foo-admin
