BTW I made a few more comments on your proposal (after you finalized). I'm told you are allowed to revise the final copy until the deadline, it's just that we can't see it until then. I think it's basically in good shape.

If by "implicit" you mean "automatic, default", yes, but IMHO there should be a distinction between "None" and "InheritFromUser". That will make it easier to "fix" in the future if it turns out that there are more than a very few people who feel more strongly than me and Mark. A perhaps more convincing example would be an extension to anonymous lists with personal reply-to. This could be accomplished by creating a mailbox at the list host, which would be associated with the user so she can set options for it (eg, which address to forward to), but should not have a display name associated with it, and certainly not the user-level display name (which in organizational contexts -- including Python! -- is likely to be a real name). Also, in documentation please always write "the user's display name". "User name" has a strong connotation of "account identifier", and so could be quite confusing (especially since we don't have a user name separate from email addresses!)
