I'm still not comfortable with it. Maybe if we renamed it.

I wasn't on the list at the time. Also, I found how why my replies to the
list subscription confirmation weren't working. My exim was sending a 'EHLO
localhost' to busybox.net, and the mta there was rejecting that. I
note, after reading the exim docs, that rejecting an email in that situation
goes against the RFCs.
