You can post using a fake or cloaked From: address to my mailing lists. I don't require a subscription for posting. You can always check the mail archive for replies to your post, if you care. I don't allow mail archives to be downloaded in the raw format. I added extra patches to the archiving software to conceal addresses better.
Mailman just replaces @ with "at" which spam harvesters could easily reverse; I made it better for my users; see below.
Kazinator's got your back!
