That is not actually correct. The part that Microsoft Outlook (and possibly other MUAs, but Outlook is the main one) adds is the part after From: through 'on behalf of'. Most MUA's just show From: Some User <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >I would like the emails to be showing as coming from >either just: > >eg.

[email protected] Actually, I thing that making the list anonymous won't help you at all. It will make the From header be, e.g. From: Mailman mailing list management users <[email protected]> (the text part is the list's 'description') instead of From: Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, but the Sender will still be, e.g., [EMAIL PROTECTED] >I'm unsure what to call this and the personalization options don't seem to >be what I want either but I am playing around with a test list to figure out >what option is the correct one to do this. The "+recipient=example.com" part of the Sender: is a VERP like sender. In order to remove it, you need to remove whatever mm_cfg.py options you have set in mm_cfg.py (assuming this is your Mailman installation) that are causing it to be added. These are things like: VERP_PERSONALIZED_DELIVERIES = Yes (default = No), and VERP_DELIVERY_INTERVAL = 1 (default = 0) -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
