Perhaps I should have been clear that this is not a subject that is
open to debate, nor is it a welcome topic of discussion on this mailing
list.
To address your (implied) questions individually:

1. I find it hard to believe you don't have an option to disable the
transliteration
You're welcome to go and read the documentation for the software itself
if you don't believe us, but that won't change the fact that the
situation is, in fact, the way I described.
(not to speak of adding a Reply-To line so we don't need to get two
copies of half the messages when subscribers get lazy).
Our reasons for doing this are in the site FAQ.
2. When there are several long-established and highly reliable
packages such as listserv, Majordomo, and EIMS (once the "APPLE
Internet Mail Server") that are more than adequate to service all your
lists and provide all the logging and archiving you need, I can't
understand why you need to be beta-testing a product that has such an
inglorious history.
We appreciate your critique of our mailing list service. We regret
that we cannot please 100% of our list members -- though we do strive
to -- and are certainly happy that we are able to please the
overwhelming majority. If the free service we provide does not suit
your needs, you are more than welcome to seek out another service that
does so, with our apologies that we could not meet your requirements.
Again, do not continue this thread. You are welcome to address further
concerns with me privately, off-list. This is off-topic, and I'm
certain it is not appreciated by members of the list who intend to use
it for its legitimate purpose.
