    council to see if it gets an official number in coming weeks.
 
+Mailing Lists
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Emails parts of mailing lists are detected and handled separately. They are converted to
+Pubsub blog nodes: the list identifier is used as the pubsub node, and each topic is added
+as a `XEP-0277 (Microblogging over XMPP)`_ item. Replies to a specific topic (i.e. in a
+thread) are set as comments to the corresponding item.
+
+If a title has some words between square brackets (``[like][this] Within the title``)
+they are removed and added as blog tags (aka categories).
+
+Only the JID associated to the recipient of the mailing list can access the pubsub node.
+It will be possible to make a mailing list public in the future.
