[#465] [mailman] allow lists owners to be set to real users addresses

Description

Summary:

Detailed description

At the moment, the email address set as a list owner at mailing list creation time (create-mailing-lists.pl) is set to $username\@$sysusers_host.

I think it would be more convenient in most situations if the real user's email address could be used. I think it is easier to remember one's own address, for reminding features of mailman, for instance, than that it uses login@users.myforge.example.com

Not necessary:

• you do not need the owner address to log in, just the password, which is mailed to the owner addresses, which are forwarded to the real user addresses EVEN IF THOSE CHANGE

• you can still always change them in admin login of mailman
