If anybody is looking for something cool, crazy, and experimental to work on 
for Mailman 3, I have am idea that would fun to explore if I had more free time.

I wonder if RFC 3028[1] could be useful in Mailman.  This RFC defines the Sieve 
language for mail filtering.  I seem to recall that there's a Python 
implementation of it, but atm I cannot find it.  It's probably most appropriate 
for advanced users, but perhaps the new web ui could provide some simple access 
to the more common actions.

Some places where it would be useful:

* list admins for filtering out off-topic posts
* site admins for filtering out known spammers
* a better user-defined topic selection machinery
* users for defining which of their registered addresses to deliver to

I'm sure we'd think of lots more cool and wacky ways to use this if we had it.

So, who'd like to take up the challenge?
