Bug Description
In Mailman it is impossible to reply to a message posted to unsubscribed list. When sent after subscription with appropriate subject and quoting it is unlikely to be added into thread as a followup. For this sake it would be convenient to have email command for receiving previous message or messages from archives.
To post a comment you must log in.

I don't quite understand that line. The setting in generic_ nonmember_ action
should control who can post to lists, yes?
Each list-admin has his own views on posting/ list-config.

Fix-up your References: header?

I tend to use wget/fetch pointing to e.g., example. com/mailman/ private/ $LISTNAME. mbox/$LISTNAME. mbox
http://
and then poking my MUA at the grabbed mbox
