>Have you tried working directly with Amazon SES to resolve the issue? I have not personally, but on their forums, others have posed have the same problem, and following is a reply directly from AWS:

If I knew how to replace the "Friendly name" with something else, that /might/ be another solution, but I haven't been able to figure out how to do that. I'm guessing that is a Postfix question. >I wonder if a third possibility, namely encapsulating every message in >another message sent by Mailman, would do the trick. Ie, require all >subscribers to subscribe to the digest edition of the list. That's not an option. We use lists for minute-by-minute round table conversations and tech support. If find it hard to believe that this isn't a common issue, since many people need a 3rd party SMTP relay.... Is it possible that this just doesn't come up much because people who run Mailman run everything, including their own SMTP relay in-house? -DW ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
