That would be a question primarily for Mark Sapiro, Tokio Kikuchi, or Barry

I know there are some bounce formats that Mailman doesn't properly handle, 
because I get them as the primary active listowner for the various mailman-* 
mailing lists on python.org, but I've been so busy that I haven't tried to 
do much of anything with them.

I will be installing 2.1.11 soon.
