Re: [Mailman-Users] Modifying the List-* headers

Is there a way to modify the List-* headers that go out with each message?
I'd like to have it so that the mailto: URI comes before the http: URI,
since it sux to have a browser come up when all you need to do is send a
message to listname-unsubscribe or whatnot.
Found the appropriate thing in $prefix/Mailman/CookHeaders.py:
# DWCHIN: change subfieldfmt to put the mailto: link first
#subfieldfmt = '&lt;%s>, &lt;mailto:%s?subject=%ssubscribe>'
subfieldfmt = '&lt;mailto:%s?subject=%ssubscribe>, &lt;%s>'
listinfo = mlist.GetScriptURL('listinfo', absolute=1)
#
# TBD: List-Id is not in the RFC, but it was in an earlier draft so we
# leave it in for historical reasons.
#headers = {
#    'List-Id'         : listid,
#    'List-Help'       : '&lt;mailto:%s?subject=help>' % requestaddr,
#    'List-Unsubscribe': subfieldfmt % (listinfo, requestaddr, 'un'),
#    'List-Subscribe'  : subfieldfmt % (listinfo, requestaddr, ''),
#    'List-Post'       : '&lt;mailto:%s>' % mlist.GetListEmail(),
#    }
# DWCHIN: change headers to put the mailto: link first
headers = {
    'List-Id'         : listid,
    'List-Help'       : '&lt;mailto:%s?subject=help>' % requestaddr,
    'List-Unsubscribe': subfieldfmt % (requestaddr, 'un', listinfo),
    'List-Subscribe'  : subfieldfmt % (requestaddr, '', listinfo),
    'List-Post'       : '&lt;mailto:%s>' % mlist.GetListEmail(),
    }
