Hey, don't bash him too hard. He's just unhappy with the Mailman
defaults, that's all. He's found a workaround, so everyone's happy.

This discussion is somewhat ironic, given that most WordPress users
(especially those on shared hosts) log in and admin over plain HTTP, not
HTTPS.

But we've said enough. If this discussion needs to go further, let's
continue it on a Mailman bug tracker, okay?
