Package: mailman
Version: 2.0final-1
Severity: wishlist

Mailman cannot be used to provide a mailing list without having a mailman web
interface for the users.  There are parts of the mailman program that insert the
web page URL into outgoing e-mails, these parts are not user configurable.

-------------------- Mailman/Handlers/CookHeaders.py --------------------
    subfieldfmt = '<%s>, <mailto:%s?subject=%ssubscribe>'
    listinfo = mlist.GetScriptURL('listinfo', absolute=1)
    #
    # TBD: List-Id is not in the RFC, but it was in an earlier draft so we
    # leave it in for historical reasons.
    headers = {
        'List-Id'         : listid,
        'List-Help'       : '<mailto:%s?subject=help>' % requestaddr,
        'List-Unsubscribe': subfieldfmt % (listinfo, requestaddr, 'un'),
        'List-Subscribe'  : subfieldfmt % (listinfo, requestaddr, ''),
        'List-Post'       : '<mailto:%s>' % mlist.GetListEmail(),
        }
-------------------- Mailman/Handlers/CookHeaders.py --------------------

-------------------- Mailman/MailCommandHandler.py --------------------
        msg = Utils.wrap('''
For more complete info about the %(listname)s mailing list, including
background and instructions for subscribing to and using it, visit:

    %(url)s

''' % {'listname': self.real_name,
       'url'     : self.GetScriptURL('listinfo', absolute=1),
       })
-------------------- Mailman/MailCommandHandler.py --------------------

The configuration files also contain this information but it can be edited out.
