I remember when Mailman2 list was moved to a Mailman3 server.

I just had wondered how Pat Hirayama had got the wrong '2' instead of '3' list,
if a list remit might be misleading,

I thought I spotted a 3 in the text of the list remit description page 
        https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/mailman-users.python.org/
but re-reading, I only see a 3 in the correct part of the URL, & eg
        To contact the list owners, use the following email address: 
        [email protected]
Which is also correct as Mailman2 is called mailman & not mailman2

Some new users who come straight to 3 may not know that. It might be
worth adding a note to list remit to avoid some future '3'
users posting to this '2' list ? Less work than renaming the list to
mailman2-users@.

Cheers,
