I thought that CC in this case works automatically? If that's not
the case, then I'll be annoyed by this too. So, thanks for CCing.

Also, https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list - this
page should probably mention that you need to subscribe to
ask a question (people like me won't read it anyway, but it
may help others).

1688 / 29 = 58.206896551724135 msg/day don't look quiet,
and I don't want to be distracted by interesting side threads,
because I will accomplish nothing, get stressed, and things
get worse at the end of the day.

I wish I could also commend from the web interface. I've
heard Mailman 3.0 is stable, it will be interesting to see what
is it capable of.
