Success install but doesn't work

After installing Dada on a shared hosting server, I successfully completed 100% of all the steps and have configured a (private) mailing list, added some users and sent an email. What I get back is: Address not found. Then I realized that the email box for my list simply doesn't exist... I didn't create it (and I don't remember anything in the instructions to do that), and the installation process didn't create it. So, I'm stuck. I don't want to create it unless someone tells me to (in case creating it causes more problems).

There is one other less important issue (not sure if I should put it in their own topic or not), but briefly it is:
* In the error log, I see this:
LWP::Protocol::https needs to be installed for Google reCAPTCHA support at /home/sites/20a/d/d618149039/public_html/xxxx-net/lists/dada//DADA/App/Guts.pm line 3219, <CONFIG> line 1
And I'm not sure if the double slash between "dada" and "DADA" is (or may become) an issue. I've looked in the configuration again to make sure I didn't have any double-slashes, and I can't find any.

But the more important question is: do I create the email box in the system that has the same name/pwd as the list name?

Thanks for any help!

I think I've resolved the issue.... I needed to edit and activate the Bridge (which I don't remember any mention of).

Also, not obvious (at least, to me!) was that the list-owner and the list email address cannot be the same. It's obvious once I think about it, but at first it wasn't.... plus it's good that the list owner email can be easily changed.
