Wow, you're all-around incompetent.

No, it's not. You're the lazy one who can't bother to read
his own majordomo email. I had to send email to the list
before you woke up and fixed things.
When I'm done with my current Usenet project, I'll volunteer to soup up
a majordomo setup to allow each subscriber:
o no filtering whatsoever (default)
o filtering of non-subscribers, except strong anonymizers
o filtering of subscribers
And support for email requests of majordomo yielding:
o #of subscribers
o #of people filtering you
o last 30 messages received, unfiltered, one messageball
Built-in support (and choice) at the list level is the way to go.
