I was told by a subscriber of a list I manage that there are some worms/viruses which are able to parse addresses in the form "user at domain dot domain", like those used in the archives by mailman.
I would not be surprised. This issue has been previously reported. See <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1059637&group_id=103&atid=100103>, among others.
Do you know if there is some provision in Mailman 2.2 to let the list admin choose a munging expression for addresses?
Mailman 2.2 does not exist, at least not yet.
I do not know Python at all, but I hope it would not be so difficult, especially if there is already a function which performs the munging!
I think this has been discussed on the list fairly extensively. Check the archives to see if anyone else has provided a recommended patch for this issue.
