I just got a rejection message about a post to the list with the stated
reason being "Message may contain administrivia" .  What on earth is "
administrivia" and is there a cure for it?

"Administrative trivia". That message usually happens if the list server thinks you are sending it commands about your account and you have used the wrong, non-administrative email address. Mailman (the list software) accepts account changes and inquiries via its admin-specific address. It reads the first word of the message body to see what you want it to do.

If the first word of your message happens to be one of those commands, the server may assume you are trying to change your account settings and accidentally used the public email address. It rejects the message.

Try changing the wording of your first sentence.
