SebbASF reopened MPIR-189:
--------------------------


Thanks, that's useful. 

However, HTML markup ought to be allowed, e.g. to allow a link to a page describing the e-mail etiquette etc.
In particular there really needs to be a link to the Forum Archive Policy http://www.apache.org/foundation/public-archives.html

The string can be specified using the <![CDATA[  tag, however something in the code then escapes the < & > so they have no effect, which makes the option rather less useful than it could be.

> The generated mailing list report has a header which provides basic info on the page.
> However, in some cases this information is not enough.
> For example, some lists may not allow posting; it would be useful to be able to explain why.
> In the case of Apache Commons, the lists are shared, so users need to add a prefix to the subject line.
> There are no doubt other use cases.
> It would be useful to be able to override the introduction.
