yes, I mean exactly this, we're not retrieving them, neither by command line options nor by environment variables. Doing it would probably be MTA-specific (i.e. less portable). I want also to point you to the USE_ENVELOPE_SENDER parameter in Defaults.py and to the get_sender method in Mailman/Message.py, where this parameter is only used to decide in which priority order we read "From:" and "Sender:" from the message header. > Yup.

I perfectly know what you mean, the fact is that over the pipe we get exactly a mailbox format (but without the leading "From " line) so according to you Mailman 2.1 doesn't work either!
