Mailing lists are different, because they change the From: in "odd" ways, and old Mailman doesn't have any way of dealing with this, which tends to lead to things like DMARC breaking, which kills delivery.

Only the very latest few Mailman v2 have work arounds. V3 is much better, but it's rip-and-replace rather than a fluid upgrade.

I've been putting off the transition on the listserv I maintain for a few local groups !
