This is not trivial at all; I think the most tricky issue will
probably be the matter of key management (and this definately needs to
be done at "Mailman" level, not at the "sendmail" level; the technical
details will be a topic for mailman-developers, not mailman-users.

Start with analysing your security needs.  Then choose a trust model
(how will Mailman know what recipient's encryption keys it should
trust?)  Then we can start discussing how the system could be
implementated at the technical level.

Greetings, Norbert.
