Oh, I am happy with it too. If Mailman were in Perl there would be
no problem, but I am not sure in python how to hack it in.
I suppose we could always filter it in the SMTP, but the machine uses
Postfix or Qmail or something else I am not familiar with, and battling
that for a day or so is not something I relish.
( Please, don't anyone bother telling me how Qmail or Postfix is easier
than sendmail; I have been hacking Sendmail rule sets since 1991 or so
and I can do just about anything with it so that is easier for *me*. If
the machine were running Sendmail, we wouldn't be having this problem
because I would have already fixed it.)
