Remove some documents that are either no longer appropriate, or now live in
the mailman-administrivia package. Update the README.txt and NEWS.txt files for the first alpha release, and add an ALPHA.txt file to describe what little you can do with the alpha release <wink>.

-Mailman - The GNU Mailing List Management System

-INTRODUCTION
-
- Mailman is compliant with RFC 2369, which specifies a number of
- List-* headers that mailing list management software should add to
- every outbound email message. These headers are designed to make
- it easy for mail user agents (MUAs) to assist users in common
- mailing list tasks, such as getting help or unsubscribing.
-
- At this time, not all MUAs understand the RFC 2369 headers, and
- instead of suppressing those List-* headers, they show them to the
- user. Many list managers report that this can generate a large
- amount of support requests from their user base.
-
- In Mailman 2.0, you cannot turn off the List-* headers without
- hacking the Mailman source. Because these headers are in the
- long-term benefit of end-users, it is strongly encouraged to leave
- these headers in and lobby the MUA vendors to support them. In
- the meantime, you can provide your users with the following
- information to help them suppress these headers.
-
-
-EUDORA USERS
-
- Mike Noyes provides the following suggestion:
-
- You can hide the new list headers. Edit your Eudora.ini file, and
- add this line under [settings].
-
- TabooHeaders=List,X-UID,Received,Status,X-UIDL,Message,In-Reply, \
- X-Priority,Mime-Version,Content,X-Persona,Resent-Message,References, \
- Return,X400,X-400,Mail-System,Errors-To,X-List,Delivery,Disposition, \
- X-Juno,Precedence,X-Attachments,X-MSMail,X-MimeOLE,X-Nav
-
- note: everything other than "List" is the default
