In my opinion, it is very bad form to enable the "who" command.  Which
mailing lists I belong to is my private affair, and unless I choose
to make myself visible (by sending a note to the mailing list) I ought
to be able to lurk in peace and without worrying about abuses (spam
and otherwise) facilitated by the "who" command.

No mailing list that I have ever run supports this function.  None
ever will.
