Hello all,
I have what I hope is a simple question. First, a little background. I
have two lists - call them A and F. Both lists are moderated.
List A is used as an authorization list, does not/is not used to send

I am fighting a variation of this right now. We have several

I would think the proper solution is to fix them, not remove them.

The headers would work, but the subscription would automatically be
restored the next night. Folks find that frustrating and would rather
not be reminded about it. There will always be a percentage who do

I've been to several sources of documentation on Mailman and can't find
