Actually, as the old list will run for a little while, it's worth
having two entries in one's mailing lists facility for the time
being. I at first changed completely, and I then received a couple
of messages sent to the SmartGroups address that went to my default
mailbox instead.
I have now added a second entry, pointing to the same box and with
the same other characteristics (strip tag, which user & sig file,
expiry after). Hopefully this will be useful to others, not only
here but on any other lists to which they subscribe who might also
have to make their change over a period.
