Right. Let's look at the message you just sent, and imagine that the list signed it with a mipassoc.org signature. Since I know that Dave runs his lists well, I'm done. The "opportunity" to check something else is irrelevant, as is the fact that the list would have broken your signature. > You are arguing the case of "your trusted friend", the mailing list. > There are alternate ways for a mail list to function rather than > present the "from" address header from another domain. Now we get to the nub of the fallacy. Mailing lists like this one have been around for a rather long time, quite possibly since before you were born, and they're not going to go away. Lists are not and never have been a significant phishing vector, but even if they were, there are plenty of ways to address that without demanding that everyone in the world change their software. If that's what you expect, you're wasting your time.
