That is not Mailman's target audience, deployment, or particular interest. The fact that it is effectively used that way is gratifying, but that's rather beside the point.

No. That is your purpose, but that is not my purpose for any of the half-dozen closed lists I run, or the purpose of most of the other closed lists I'm a member of. Some.
