Hello, all!

It *is* standard for mailing lists, but it is NOT the default for
Mailman - at least in the version of Mailman that ships with Intrepid.

I know because I run Mailman on my Intrepid "desktop server", and I have
to manually edit this field for all my newly-created mailing lists -
it's kind of a drag. But I can't really complain, because Mailman is so
nice.

Cheers,
