That'd be handy. I wouldn't mind seeing a patch for that, or helping if necessary (though I should be careful about volunteering time since I'm starting a new job in September and haven't a clue how much time I'll have... there's still documentation I want to write.) On a related note -- have other people been having trouble with challenge-response using susbscribers on their lists? Linuxchix has had some "Dear grrltalk-bounces" messages which are kinda annoying. We can't really take the time to jump through those hoops and read every uncaught bounce, so we've just asked people to whitelist us themselves.
