Just wondering... I can see that the above would be true in the case of lists that allow anybody to post. But is it true even in the case of lists that can only be posted to by subscribers? (Well, I guess that Subscriber A could spoof their message as being from Subscriber B. But barring pathological cases like that, presumably Mailman can match the sender's email address against the subscriber list and find the value of the corresponding name field.)

See e.g. https://v.gd/jrmGbS ).
