	I believe that I had seen and responded to his previous posting 
on mailman-users.  IIRC, Panix isn't about to change how they do 
anything.  Nor is the recipient ISP.  And the user refuses to move to 
a different ISP.

	IIRC, Paul is using an ISP where he has no control over the MTA, 
and he's not about to change ISPs to a place where he might have more 
control over this.


	Having eliminated virtually every reasonable alternative, he 
either has to hack the Python code to avoid treating a warning as an 
error, or the user drops off the mailing list.  I see no other 
options.

	I seem to recall that I have previously said more or less the 
same thing to him.
