I'm convinced. I don't think there is any facility for obfuscating email
addresses in the body of the message within mailman.

So I will change the request to:
Please add a notice to the mailing list sign up page notifying subscribers
that the list has a public archive and email addresses should be left out
of the body of messages.

Sounds like we need a mailing list or admin subproject to assign tasks to.
