You know what's very odd? When they send mail directly to me their
name includes the quotes.
"Foo B. User" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
When they send mail to the list then it's held and looking at the
headers in the Mailmain admindb page it has their From: header without
the quotes:
From: Foo B. User <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
With the reject message:
Pending posts:
From: foob.user on Mon Sep 19 14:09:01 2005
Cause: Post by non-member to a members-only list
Otherwise, their headers are all indicate both messages coming from the
same client and via the same smtp setup.
X-Mailer: Apple Mail (2.622)
I have to assume that my old version of Mailman is stripping the
quotes. Very odd.
