That's really strange.

I applied the patch as downloaded from
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/attachments/20091002/59af9652/attachment.txt>
to the 2.1.14 base. It applied cleanly except for a 1-line offset in
the 3rd and 4th hunks because the patch is against the 2.1.12 base.

I created two lists with two owners each as above and everything works
as expected. I don't see a problem.

What do you get from, e.g.

 bin/dumpdb lists/list2/config.pck | grep \'owner

In my case, I see

 bin/dumpdb lists/t2/config.pck | grep \'owner
    'owner': ['u...@example.com', 'us...@example.com'],

which is expected.

Note that with the patch, the first address is validated during the
list create process, but the second is not. Thus if there are leading
or trailing spaces or special characters in the second address, that
could cause problems.
