Yes, these work here too now:

	https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-announce

Yes, decrement typing time of maybe 2/3 minutes from my ~/mail/sent/ entry
which has 
	Date: Thu, 01 Dec 2016 12:26:18 +0100
	Subject: bug: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-announce/jhs-list%40berklix.org
	To: webmaster at mail.python.org

Sorry I omitted date.

The error was still present after the auto bounce from
webmaster@, when in mail #2 I added 
	cc: mailman-users at python.org with
& then for completeness also checked & failed on
	https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users
2nd mail was sent:
	Date: Thu, 01 Dec 2016 13:48:24 +0100
