I've never used Outlook. I have no personal knowledge of this, but my
impression is thae following:

Mailman sends a post From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with Sender:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Outlook displays the message as

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This is wrong. It would be more accurate if Outlook displayed

Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of [EMAIL PROTECTED]

but I don't know if that would make much difference to the user.

Also, it seems from what I see, that at least some Outlook clients do
reply_to_Sender rather than reply-to-From which is a problem.

Another problem is that some users get confused by "bounces" and think
it means something is wrong. [EMAIL PROTECTED] might be more
acceptable.
