One irritation is that the To: field now contains the subscriber address (e.g. I pick up messages "To: leeg(a)teaching.physics.ox.ac.uk") instead of the list's address (darwin-kernel). I used to vgrep on the To: address in order to distinguish personal mail from list mail; now I need to have my MUA filter stuff. Not a great deal but irritating nonetheless.

I don't think they're broken by principle, but it does seem the "no mail" settings didn't get properly integrated in the new system. This email sent to site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com
