    I'm curious as to the copyright protections available to you, but if
    you're going to threaten python-list's owners with legal action for
    daring to rebroadcast a public post, I would have to recommend that
    you get promptly banned from the list in order to reduce liability.

    Stefan had been banned for years because of this issue. In mid-2021
    (wow, that long ago? I thought that was a lot more recently) his posts
    started to appear again.

    I don't know if this was a concious decision of the moderators, a
    technical error or whether Stefan changed something which caused him to
    escape the filter.

    I don't think it matters. If someone posts to a Usenet group with the
    full knowledge that it is gatewayed to a mailing list it is unreasonable
    to expect the moderators of the list to jump through hoops to comply
    with wishes hidden away in a non-standard header.

    What's so bad about mailing lists that you don't want your messages to
    be seen on them?

    He's Stefan Ram :-).
