Hi everyone,

I'm working with an issue that is related to:

<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2012-March/073047.html>
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2012-June/073641.html>

Specifically, I have some users on a couple of lists that are gmail users with 
multiple accounts linked to that gmail address.  They use it to send mail while 
at work, but still have it appear to come from their home address.  All good 
except when they a) screw up with the wrong address, or b) when that old 
address is no longer active.  (And there is a history of people forging mail on 
the lists, not the case now, but you know people are sensitive about the 
issue...)

I have modified the mm_cfg.py file from:

SENDER_HEADERS = ('from', None, 'reply-to', 'sender')

to:

SENDER_HEADERS = ('from', 'reply-to', 'sender')

and it works.

Thinking about it a bit more, it would be better if there was a check to make 
sure the email address in the envelope ID matched actually matched the address 
in the "From:".  Is there a way of setting that in the  mm_cfg.py file?  
Ideally, my preference would be to work with the individual users on this, in 
part because it only happened on a couple of lists.  Could a Regexp catch this 
in the spam filters settings.

Thanks!
