Here's what the FAQ says (in CVS, but not yet pushed out to the
servers):
-------------------- snip snip --------------------
Q. My list members are complaining about Mailman's List-* headers!
What can I do about this?
A. These headers are added by Mailman for the long-term benefit of
end-users. Mailman is compliant with RFC 2369, which is where
these headers are defined. See the file README.USERAGENT for hints
on what to tell your end users.
-------------------- snip snip --------------------
README.USERAGENT is attached.
Should we say more? I'm open to suggestions. If it looks okay, I'll
at least push the revised faq.html out.
