Edit your ADDRBOOK with a text-editor and put the mailing-list alias as
follows:

Mailing_List: user1@somewhere.com,\
user2@somewhere.else.com,\
user3@a.third.place.dk

The alias (Mailing_List) must begin at the first column and each address
must by ended with a comma(,) except for the last address, each line
must by ended with a backslash except for the last line.

This will only take effect when you restart Yarn.

Hope that helps.
