Comment 2 for bug 410236

Thanks for the report and suggested patch. This is only part of the larger backscatter from Mailman issue which will be addressed in Mailman 2.2. Your patch is helpful for this.

I'm leaning towards making all these thing controlled by site (mm_cfg.py) rather that list settings because ultimately they affect the entire mail server, not just a list or lists. Thus, as you understand, they should be controlled by a site admin, not a list owner.

If some of these settings actually need to be list settings (something I haven't gotten to yet), perhaps a compromise such as leaving them out of the GUI and requiring the non-default to be set by config_list or withlist is appropriate.

Do you really have a need for this to be a list rather than a site setting?
