Is there a plan to set up a bounce returned to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be considered a global bounce and that user is unsubbed from all lists? Right now, mailman effectively throws away bounces from the password reminders, which can be used very effectively to keep stuff clean. > - Membership Adaptors > o Internally, mailing list memberships are accessed through a > MemberAdaptor interface.

Including things like monthly password reminders? I guess what I'm suggesting is Mailman as a slave to a non-attached membership system -- can we really detach it cleanly so it's just a delivery system without rough edges or hacking? Down to the external membership system in headers and footers? > This work was sponsored by Control.com (clap clap clap clap) _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers
