We're working on it. I have some more changes to the mail system for python.org that need to be implemented before we can take the next step. > *Where I need some advice:* > How does MailMan sort out threads.

Mailman uses the contents of the "References:" and "In-Reply-To:" headers, not the "Subject:" line, although it will do some trimming on the subject line to try to keep it more sane. > Is the idea of [EMAIL PROTECTED] an easy-to-implement option? Within Mailman? No, not really. At least, not so far as I know. Why not just use a different topic for each bug? That way people who want information on all bugs can subscribe to the list and not track specific topics, while others who want information on just that one bug can track that one topic. > I'm pretty sure that MailMan will allow anonymous/non-subscriber posts, Yup. It's just a configuration option. Of course, then you have to worry about everyone getting hit by spam which is addressed to the list. > Finally (and this is probably in the FAQ, so I'm being lazy by > asking...) - what is the best mechanism of backing up a complete MailMan > installation?
