I'm not comfortable with an email address in the display name not matching the real address. If I saw that in a non list email, it would look spammy to me.
I don't like the idea of users getting used to seeing that sort of thing as normal, and there's the problem that lots of mail clients will only show the first few characters of the long display name. Would this be better: From: " [some-mail-list] Mark Rousell ma...@signal100.com <some-mail-l...@yahoogroups.com> Peter Shute Sent from my iPad > On 26 May 2014, at 1:49 am, "Mark Rousell" <ma...@signal100.com> wrote: > > What do you think of Yahoo Groups' From munging style and their > X-Original-From header? > > Here is an example: > > X-Original-From: Mark Rousell <ma...@signal100.com> > From: "Mark Rousell ma...@signal100.com [some-mail-list]" > <some-mail-l...@yahoogroups.com> > > > I feel this is one of the better combinations of munging and new > headers.
