Does your list have archives?

If so, and if the ARCHIVER_OBSCURES_EMAILADDRS  setting has it's
default value of Yes, the poster's address in the archived message is
a mailto: link to the list with appropriate Subject= and In-Reply-To=
query fragments for replying.

There is an issue in that in Mailman versions prior to 2.1.10, there
was a bug in that the In-Reply-To was the Message-ID of the prior post
in thread if any rather than the current post.
