The header is not encrypted, it's just the message body. So all metadata analysis is still possible with an encrypted mailinglist. If everybody uses kmail that's easy to fix with a filter - if you look at my filter that I posted some days ago: if the mail is encrypted and comes from e.g. "users-encrypted@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", then replace it with the decrypted body. That body vcontains (violating the standard) the whole message including headers. On the sending side (mailinglist), just replace the header with a minimal version and random subject (e.g. date+timestamp). Making a shared private/public keypair for the list is used the othe way round is no problem, as changing the private part will have no effect. It's also convenient, as all users can use the public key to send encrypted mail to the list. Again, kmail can handle this this transparent for the user. Oh, anybody needs a tutorial?
