The problem is the defacto standardized address obfuscation on the
mailman web archive is easily reversible. All it takes is someone with
the interest to write an automated 'use this address to email this
mailman list' bot. The From addresses need to be rendered irreversibly
unusable for email when displayed on the web archive to prevent that
from happening.
