I did a bit more digging,  and found the following in the list archive: 

https://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2013-August/075505.html <https://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2013-August/075505.html>

which appears to address your issue almost directly. 

> Go to your list administrator's page for that list.
> Non-digest options -> Personalization
> Select "Full Personalization".
> Save the options.


If this option doesn't appear on that page, the installation needs to set

OWNERS_CAN_ENABLE_PERSONALIZATION = Yes
