+Purging Mailman will wipe lists and archives
+--------------------------------------------
+
+If you purge the mailman package, please note that this will wipe all
+lists and archives you may have. We believe this to be consistent behaviour,
+because someone purging a package is essentially requesting that they
+completely do not want that package anymore and no traces should be left.
