You shouldn't.

Because I run pygettext with the -D option, it extract docstrings for
all modules, classes, methods, and functions.  I do this because I
/do/ want the module docstrings for the bin/* scripts to be in the
catalog.

This is because those docstrings server double duty as the usage text
for --help, so they should be translated.  They can't be wrapped with
_() because then Python wouldn't consider them docstrings.  I really
should try to break the messages.file: rule in message/Makefile.in
into two, because the docstrings for the stuff not in bin/* cron/* or
scripts/* probably does not need to be extracted.

It should be http://yoursite/mailman/mylist/rmlist
