Dear Mark Many thanks for the reply which is much appreciated.
The spam problem I have is because we have many members from different organisations linked by a private network. Emails sent from these organisations are sent out to other members however when they are received by other organisations on the private network they are rejected because they have not been delivered internally on the private network. I do not have access to change the configuration files unfortunately so custom handlers will not work for me. It is a real shame that mailman does not allow you the option of setting up anonymous mode with separate options for the email address name and reply to fields. Are there any other possibilities ?

No. The anonymous list feature is designed to remove all information that could identify the sender. >To get around spam protection systems I want all emails to come from >the list email address but that list members reply to the poster. All list posts are sent with the envelope from and the Sender: header equal to the LISTNAME-bounces@... address. I'm sure it depends on the spam filter, but whitelisting this address may work. If you need to modify the From: header and perhaps put the original From: in a Reply-To:, you can do that with a custom handler.
