Hmmh. This is part-ish of the problem.

But in this specific case, the problem did persist even after disabling Mailman,
and it could eventually be traced to a web frontend called modoboa
putting its own, broken, configuration. So, this time, Mailman was
not the culprit.

Reading the documentation for Exim4 and Postfix these days, I have to
wonder if there isn't room for a new MTA with a sane configuration
language.  Feels like regressing to sendmail.cf levels of obfuscation.
