Mailman expects to find [EMAIL PROTECTED] (host_name is the list
attribute) or something that matches acceptable_aliases in a To:, Cc:,
Resent-To: or Resent-Cc: header in the message.

For historical reasons Mailman also accepts [EMAIL PROTECTED], so the
difference between [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] or 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wouldn't be the explaination here.
