[Webdev] [ot] Blocking mail addresses from Pipermail

It is possible but.. here's the text from the mailman config:
"Hide the sender of a
    message, replacing it
     with the list address
  (Removes From, Sender
    and Reply-To fields)"

Which is a bit more than you asked for. I have mixed feelings about it.
It would reduce the amount of spam sent to members but I don't think
that's much of an issue right now.
But it would stop anyone starting a private discussion about a topic
unless the persons' address was in the archives, which is a huge no-no
IMO!

Donncha.
