Tim, A (?!...) Python negative lookahead assertion would be the preferred solution, but I was unable to make it work with Mailman 2.0.x versions. Barry stated that this will not be the case in 2.1.x. If anyone knows how to get negative lookahead assertions to work in Mailman 2.0.x versions, please enlighten me.
