I believe Mailman will accept a number of different conventions for entering real names, but it makes no distinction between 'first' and 'last' names. For example:
Will-Main <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Main, Will ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) "Will Main" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To quote a message from Barry, found by searching the archives of this list, --- Actually, any format recognized by email.Utils.parseaddr() is acceptable: http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-email.Utils.html so Anne Person <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "Brian D. Ude" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- I hope that answers your question.
