That's why the setting is called anonymous_list. You arenn't supposed to be able to determine who sent a post from the received post or the archives. >How can I find out, while maintaining privacy so that addresses are not >exposed to the list at large? The only place you can find this information is in mailman's 'post' log. For each post, there will be an entry like "post to <LISTNAME> from <contents of original From: header> anonymized". If you don't have access to the Mailman logs on the server, you will have to get this information from someone who does. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
