Hmmm... so I'd assume that maybe mailman3 is rendering RST? If it is, then
the following should be formatted as code::
>>> 2 ** 200
1606938044258990275541962092341162602522202993782792835301376
>>>
On the other hand, maybe it's markdown? Then this should be a code block:
```
>>> 2 ** 200
1606938044258990275541962092341162602522202993782792835301376
>>>
```
Love an experiment... (and apologies everyone for the formatting test)
Cheers,
Naomi
