So, is there any reasons for not deprecating it? How are you using it

So from the response I got so far, it sounds like the archive isn't used.

If I don't get any new responses in the next few days, I will just 
migrate arch-commits to mailman3 without migrating the archive and with 
archiving disabled.

Mailman3 migration and news draft

2022-05-17 Thread Kristian Klausen

Hi all,

As hinted in my last message, I'm in the process of migrating our 
mailing lists from mailman2 to mailman3[1].


We are migrating away from mailman2 as it is basically unmaintained and 
requires Python 2 which is EOL.


At the time of writing the following active lists haven't been migrated:
- arch-commits
- arch-general
- arch-security
- aur-dev
- aur-general
- aur-requests
- pacman-contrib
- pacman-dev

I'm planning to migrate the remaining lists soon and likely migrating 
arch-general and aur-general as the last two lists.


As part of the migration I'm disabling the "mangling" of the mails to 
keep the DKIM signature intact (i.e. no rewrite of the "from" header nor 
prefixing the subject with the list name), this means "reply list" must 
be used when replying to the list.


For that reason I think the change is worth a news item, so the users 
know they must use "reply list" and that they may need to update their 
filters. I have created a draft here[2] which I hope to post after 
migrating the remaining lists (feel free to edit).

Great thing!

Definitively worth a news item, I was confused not to see the list name 
in the email title and it breaks my workflow (which does not use 
filtering as that is not suitable to me, I need the list name to be 
visible in my INBOX view, so in the email title).


wCPO pointed on IRC that sieve can add the [listname] part again in the 
email title as per https://superuser.com/questions/1502589, but we need 
the editheader extension to be enabled. Are there real concerns doing this?


Thanks,
