Phew, what's the rationale to not support your subscribers in *any* way during this? With compatible lists addresses or at least compatible headers?
There are over 700.000(!) individual subscribers on the lists. Nearly 10.000(!) of them have more than one subscription. I bet you, subscribers who have more than 5 subscriptions number in the hundreds. Out of those you will find dozens that have complicated mail filtering going on.
You want to render this incompatible with 3 days of notice. Have you thought about the amount of work you are going to cause?
Of course we did. This was discussed two months ago[1]. The reason we're pulling the trigger now is that suse.com is switching on a DMARC policy that will break sending any emails to openSUSE mailing lists. Mailman offered a reasonable path for those emails, so we're doing the transition now with "short notice". You'd still have to deal with this even if we could wait a bit longer, but you cannot say you didn't know this was coming.
