I'd be really surprised if that ever becomes the default, because there are so many other ways in which backscatter can be generated -- either by Mailman, or any other MLM. Yes, in the future I would hope there would be options available to the site admin, or ideally also to the list admin, to reduce backscatter generation, but they should address all potential sources of backscatter and not just the aliases. -- Brad Knowles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> LinkedIn Profile: <http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu> ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
