yup. Which goes back to my idea of completely separating the content 
issues out of mailman and accessing it through it's own API, so you 
can say something like "get_message(UNSUB,LISTNAME, SPANISH) and 
whatever you get back is the the proper piece -- so that all this 
stuff can be added to mailman without mailman actually having to 
worry about it.

(I've actually fleshed this out to some level of detail, I just 
haven't had time to write it down... And to add to the joy, I've just 
agreed to stand for vice president of the Science Fiction Writers of 
America, so I may have a new time sink pending sometime next year...)
