Done!

As I wasn't able to have working tests for this package, they're disabled in
d/rules. Maybe I just should remove this file.

I think this requires more background on mailman3 functionnalities that I
currently have. Maybe I'll set this suggestion in debian/TODO for later!

I guess I'm not able to do such test myself.

Thanks for your time!
