It seems part of what you intended to post above is missing, but the FAQ article at <http://wiki.list.org/x/4030534> probably addresses this. The underlying issue is messages are sent with the envelope sender, an Errors-To: header and a Sender: header set to the listname-bounces address. This is so non-delivery notices (bounces) are sent to the list's bounce processing address and not to the list itself or the poster of the original message. It is normally the Sender: header which is exposed by some MUAs (Microsoft Outlook and other Microsoft products in particular) which causes user confusion. It actually should not be necessary for Mailman to set the Sender: as any compliant MTA will return a non-delivery notice to the envelope sender, but not all MTAs are compliant. In recent Mailman versions, if the site doesn't disable it, there is a General Options -> include_sender_header setting that can tell Mailman not to add it's Sender: header. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
