I have a patch for 2.0.10 which allows list owners to set, on a per-list basis, 
whether the List-* headers are added to each posting. I need this for the same reason 
as the Aerosmith guy, namely because I have several outgoing-only "newsletter" lists 
which I don't want users trying to self-administer.

(It took me all of a half hour to figure out how to write this patch, by the way, and 
I didn't even know Python when I started. I congratulate the Mailman authors on making 
the software flexible enough to add a new attribute to mlists, generate the adin GUI 
for same automagically, and make retrofitting existing lists a simple matter of using 
withlist.)

Anyway, the FAQ says this particular modification is frowned upon, so I didn't submit 
it. If people want it, I can package it up and document it. I imagine that others have 
also implemented this, as it's a pretty obvious change to CookHeaders.py and 
MailList.py. Should I submit mine? If so, where should I send it?
