I know, seems like a Catch22 situation. At least now Thunderbird is 
showing the real sender as a CC: address once you select a message, so 
you know who actually sent it, but it totally takes away the  
possibility to sort by sender, for example when you are looking for a 
conversation with a specific sender.


But there has to  be a way, I am subscribed to a bunch of mailing lists, 
and this is the only one that behaves that way. Makes me kind of wonder 
what the FreePascal folks are using, with all those lists, this doesn't 
happen... 

When you send an email to the email list, you might get a bounce
message. This is because of a change at Gmail where they are now more
strict about SPF.

I made the change on freedos-user. If it seems to solve the problem
there, I'll make the same change on freedos-devel.


FYI that I've made the same change on freedos-devel. Let me know if
there are problems.

The solution was the "Munge the From email address" setting. Without
it, the list server fails on strict SPF checking.


Well, now it seems all messages in here also just show up as coming from 
"Technical discussions..." instead of showing the sender in my email 
client (latest version of Thunderbird, on both Windows and Linux)... :(

FYI that I've made the same change on freedos-devel. Let me know if
there are problems.

The solution was the "Munge the From email address" setting. Without
it, the list server fails on strict SPF checking.
