Since Mailman is a high-profile mailinglist server, I think that the simple need to click such a link would be implemented quite quickly. If implemented upstream, this feature would reach Debian stable about 1,5 years from now the earliest, and there's a good chance that bots have caught up by then. I do not think that the implementation effort offsets the benefits. Thijs
