OK, that's very plausible, and an excellent example. It will almost never happen to me (and that instance was in 1997 or so ;-), but for you it could be an ongoing, if occasional, annoyance. Not cool. > that would make the definition not match the existing practice, so > list settings would need to be edited. True, for those folks who have edited their footers. For the rest, they get it with the upgrade, as the IETF list did. We can mitigate that, with some risk of guessing wrong. But it's not a huge consequence if we do guess wrong, I think. > Also, the question comes does the separator require and exact > number of underscores Yes.

We separate the footer from the separator. I think we already do that in Mailman 3. If you have time, please keep trying to poke holes in my ideas. Whether to revert in Mailman 2 is entirely up to Mark, but Mailman 3 is still up for discussion.
