Help?!] Seems to me saying “Try to ensure that 'From:' is “aligned” with …” does it. I’d prefer to put the header field name in quotes or otherwise distinguish it. Otherwise, it can be difficult to parse - is “from” the header or a preposition. But, I don’t like “author’s domain”. Who or what is the author? Why not just say “the Mailman server’s domain” since that’s what it’s going to be aligned with. > 'no': Do nothing special.

No would only be appropriate if ‘yes’ was the other option. But backwards compatibility is important too (even if it’s not to most large computer companies :-( ). -- Larry Stone lston...@stonejongleux.com http://www.stonejongleux.com/ ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://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: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
