Jon,

As our resident Mailman experts have stated - this is not a standard feature
of the current versions.  I don't know the release date for Version 3, but
it was being talked about 2 years ago when I first started using Mailman....

I have gotten around this in the current 2.x versions by doing two things:

1. putting some filters in place to append the sitename to the mailman
listname at the time of list creation
2. adding mail aliases for the original [EMAIL PROTECTED] that point to the
sitename-listname@ list addresses.  I am using Qmail so that is very easy to
do.

It is a crude fix but has been working well for me for over 2 years with
hundreds of domains and thousands of mailing lists.

There is a side effect that the From/Sender/Reply-To addresses of lists look
a little weird, but I have modified Mailman to fix that as well.

If you want to go down this path, feel free to contact me off list.

| Not with the standard version of Mailman, no.  See FAQ 4.47 at
