Your steps indicate you are trying to add a brand new mailing list, not an entry
to an existing mailing list (hence the button name "New List").

To add an entry to an existing mailing list, select the mail list name in the
right pane and click the "Edit" button. This will allow you to add to the
existing mailing list.

Editing a mailing list worksforme using nov30 commercial build win98.
Marking this bug invalid.

On Netscape 6 ,I have done as you have suggested selected and it works.
But giving a name of an existing list and giving a new entry in the same New 
list window,should give a message saying the mailing list exists,and the entry 
should be added to the exsisting list,this part does not seem to work on 
Netsacpe 6 either.
