Dear mailmam team..
I’ve been a proud mailman user for years and I would like to post some comments
that would be useful in the next mailman version:

configured.. I don't know what yahoo and hotmail really want! I'm so

option please tell me
I don't see what this has to do with security or spam. It only has to
do with what some users see when they view list mail. It may cause
some users to reply to the wrong address depending on how brain-dead
their MUA is, and then the list owner may see the reply as an
unrecognized bounce,
You mean your list members don't already know the address of the list
they're on. If that's the case, it sounds like you're the spammer.
ofcourse I don't want them to know the address for the very same reason, spam
to the list.. besides, they subscribe thru a form in my site not by email
