It's not done in Mailman 3.

For mailman 2.1, the administrator email addresses are a mailto: link
the goes to the LISTNAME-owner address, but the email addresses are
exposed and only mildly obfuscated ('@' -> ' at ').

I would consider adding a configuration option to either obfuscate the
addresses further (e.g. drop the domain entirely) or replace the text
with something like "Listname list run by listname-owner at example.com".

WDOT?
