By default, Mailman examines the From: header, the envelope sender of the message, the Reply-To: header if any and the Sender: header if any of the incoming message to determine if any of these contains the address of a list member. If so, the post is considered to be from the first member address found for purposed of moderation. Test by sending messages from googlemail either to yourself at a non-googlemail address or to the list with Bcc: to yourself at a non-googlemail address (I say use a non-googlemail address because googlemail has a habit of discarding messages that have the same Message-Id: as ones in your Sent folder), and examine the headers of the message. The envelope sender is supposed to be reflected in a Return-Path: header in the received message, but not all MDAs are compliant. You can change what things mailman looks at for list mambership. See the setting SENDER_HEADERS in Defaults,py and override it in mm_cfg.py if you wish. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
