Administrivia looks at the message subject and the first 5 body lines
for certain patterns. The test is a special function
(is_administrivia) defined in Mailman/Utils.py and called from
Mailman/Handlers/Hold.py.

The best way to do this in general is via a custom handler. See
<http://wiki.list.org/x/l4A9>. There is no configuration setting in
standard Mailman to do this.
