Quite.  I'm wondering if hiring a dedicated VPS and setting it up with
mailman wouldn't be simpler than dealing with yahoogroups' quirks...

The recent From-stuff is actually simple, compared to the problems I
have had with just getting people subscribed to the lists.

That might be an idea... thanks for the heads up.  My yahoogroups'
filtering already has subject tag stripping in them.

I use dovecot with procmail(*) for mail filtering, so I would just put
the fix in there.


(*) I know it's old, ancient actually, but it works and setting up mail
    filtering is boring...
