Just a suggestion. How about hack the CookHeaders.py a bit, remark the line "List-Post" and remain the lines "List-Subscribe" and "List-Unsubscribe" unchanged? This will only remove the "List-Post" information from the mail header.

With Majordomo there IS nothing to maintain! That was the pointI was trying to make. I do understand that it is a case of different strokes for different folks. I have no problem with that what-so-ever. MM is not at all designed for use as a news list. It may well work OK for a discussion list but as far as news list goes it is horrid. I am stuck with all these irrelevant headers that tell folks how to post, etc when in all reality they CANT post. So now people start sending to the list because the list tells them to and I start getting tons of bounced mail. Now I cant turn off the mail bouncing thing, I am FORCED to go manually delete each mail. Oh yeah I can hack the code to make it so that the bounces go away but then people cant subscribe. What good is a list where people cant subscribe. So it is a vicious circle. I do things the way the programmers want them to be done and thats all there is to it. It is very frustrating to see software that is so close to being excellent but because of a few minor issues is almost unusable. I am sure you follow what I am saying here.

we switched from majordomo and our listowners and thier lists have both commented how much easier it is to do administration and they feel the interface is user friendly.
it would be nice if there was a way to set an option to "assume" reject as a default for posts to closed lists from non-members without also throwing out subscription requests. Perhaps something in the future for 2.1?
