8 Mailman is compliant with RFC 2369, which specifies a number of
9 List-* headers that mailing list management software should add to
10 every outbound email message. These headers are designed to make
11 it easy for mail user agents (MUAs) to assist users in common
12 mailing list tasks, such as getting help or unsubscribing.
14 At this time, not all MUAs understand the RFC 2369 headers, and
15 instead of suppressing those List-* headers, they show them to the
16 user. Many list managers report that this can generate a large
17 amount of support requests from their user base.
19 In Mailman 2.0, you cannot turn off the List-* headers without
20 hacking the Mailman source. Because these headers are in the
21 long-term benefit of end-users, it is strongly encouraged to leave
22 these headers in and lobby the MUA vendors to support them. In
23 the meantime, you can provide your users with the following
24 information to help them suppress these headers.
29 Mike Noyes provides the following suggestion:
31 You can hide the new list headers. Edit your Eudora.ini file, and
32 add this line under [settings].
34 TabooHeaders=List,X-UID,Received,Status,X-UIDL,Message,In-Reply, \
35 X-Priority,Mime-Version,Content,X-Persona,Resent-Message,References, \
