| | I updated the Mailman mailing list manager this morning to deal
| | with delivery problems with some sites (e.g. Yahoo!) that are
| | picky about DMARC compliance.  The primary effect will be that
| | the From: address will appear as the posting address for the
| | list, not the original sender's From:.
| | 
| | Any existing Reply-To: header should be untouched.  The original
| | user's From: address should be put in a Reply-To: if I understand
| | the Mailman documentation.
| 
| 
| I've seen no other messages on the fP list since this one.  Did the
| change to Mailman cause an outage?

OK, no outage, my message came through; but as promised, it shows in my
MUA's list of the messages in my mailbox as being from "filePro Mailing
List", not as being from me. When I reply to the message, you see above
that my MUA then uses "filePro Mailing List", not my name, to show who's
being quoted.

This should not abide.
