At this point though, to characterize the list as "broken" is a bit harsh, IMO


I don't think I'm being harsh. The headers on this new list are jumbled up in a way that's contrary to generally accepted mailing list behavior. As a technical person it's plain broken; how clients interpret the combination of headers with List-* headers to pretty-print things for the end user is not an indication of "working".

The yardstick for "fixed" vs. "broken" should not be how things appear on the surface, but found in the headers. The References aren't working to thread. The "From" header is wrong. The envelope sender isn't the list manager. But if everyone accepts it then whatever, I won't waste my energy.
