As originally stated, this report was that mailman should distinguish between the reason for rejection. You closed the bug, saying it already does this... now you are saying it doesn't?

There's no need to break translations. Just add another paragraph (sentence, really) giving the reason for rejection. Even if it isn't translated into all 35 languages immediately, it's an improvement.
