Hi all,

Did a gremlin mess with server settings for this list? For the last few days, every message I've gotten has had  "mailing list" ([email protected]) in both From and To fields, which means my mail client no longer shows who the sender was. (The sender's name and address are in the "Reply to" field.) In contrast, the developer list continues to behave itself, with the sender's name in the From field and "LyX Developers" in the To field.

I am not sure if I would qualify this as a gremlin, but one of the people from OSUOSL.org (which gracefully hosts these lists and our server) did tweak this mailing list.

Why did such a thing happen?

Well, every time our friend Valdemaras (aka [email protected]) posted a message on the list, I got a bounce from every subscriber to this list who use a yahoo-based ISP (that's 40 people who did not get the message). This with an error message about spam and DMARC that I am not sure to understand. As I do not understand why Valdemaras is our only user who freaks out yahoo.

So we can try to tweak again and better the list, but no promises. And if there is a specialist of mailman reading this, hints will be welcome.

Thanks JMarc. That sheds some light. It is quite curious that the change affects different recipients in different ways, even when we use the same mail client (though perhaps not with the same email provider).

In any case, while I would prefer to have the proper sender display back, if that can't be done I can accept the "new normal" as the price of avoiding your being spammed. :-)

Paul
