Thanks. I tried to bring this up recently (in the thread at:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/thread/EP7DQ36TJB5G3KGV4FPUQ7D6TKOF24NV/
but nothing happened. You've gone the extra mile and looked into how it
can be done. I'd also like to suggest an explicit URL for the list
archive in the message footer, which did used to be there. I know it's
in the message headers, but these aren't clickable in many MUAs.

(I also think the new archive system is significantly less useful than
the old one, but that's a different topic).
