Just in case you have an idea how to do it in Postfix (at the server where Mailman is running) - I'd be grateful.
That's a simple matter of using the postfix canonical table. See <http://www.postfix.org/ADDRESS_REWRITING_README.html#canonical>.
Still, it seems not to help - even if all "long" addresses are translated into "short" by receiving MTA, people can subscribe with "long" addresses without our control.
Yup, that's a problem.
So I hoped to find some ready recipe I missed in the documentation; but as I now know it doesn't exist I'll continue to improve my code hacking.
I believe that this is something that they're working on fixing in the design work for the upcoming Mailman version 3, but I don't know any more about it than that.
If you can come up with a suitably generalized patch and upload that to the Mailman site on SourceForge, that would increase the probability that it might get included in a future version of Mailman 2.x. Then you wouldn't have to keep maintaining your local patched version.
