With jef's help we managed to convert ~ubuntu-lists into a team and one
of the LP admins merged it into ~ubuntugis.

Changing the the email preferneces for ~ubuntugis shows:

"
 A confirmation message has been sent to 'ubuntu at lists.osgeo.org'.
 Follow the instructions in that message to confirm the new contact
 address for this team. (If the message doesn't arrive in a few minutes,
 your mail provider might use 'greylisting', which could delay the
 message for up to an hour or two.)
"

That message may have ended up in the moderation queue.

Kind Regards,

Bas
