I appreciate that the MailMan team is awesome & doing the best that can be expected given the new DMARC restrictions being forced on us all. Thanks guys!
FEATURE REQUEST: A setting to configure the new "From" line. Instead of FROM: Author_Name via ListName <listn...@lists.example.com> I want to request that MailMan let the list admin config the text after the author's name in the FROM line. I would use this setting to say: FROM: Author_Name via Club Name <listn...@example.com> * substituted test string "Club Name" for "List Name" * substituted explicit reply_to_address instead of list address. More details: DreamHost just installed 2.1.17 so that's what I have to work with. I don't know why they didn't go all the way to the newest version this week. My email lists are served from a sub-domain that I don't use for anything except lists. lists.example.com That is a given, not my option. I have things figured out as well as can be for my situation. The settings we are going to use are: reply_goes_to_list = Explicit address reply_to_address = everyb...@example.com (as opposed to everyb...@lists.example.com ) from_is_list = Mung From first_strip_reply_to = Yes The only difference is from_is_list = Mung From. The other settings are the same as before DEMARC. This makes it almost as good as before Yahoo ruined all mailing lists worldwide. Differences before & After DEMARC BEFORE: FROM: Author_Name <aut...@example.com> TO: ListName <everyb...@example.com> REPLY-TO: ListName <everyb...@example.com> We liked it like that. Everything was fine. AFTER DEMARC, using the best settings for us that we can: FROM: Author_Name via ListName <everyb...@lists.example.com> TO: ListName <everyb...@example.com> REPLY-TO: ListName <everyb...@example.com> This is *pretty good* except that * I don't like the "via list name" in the from header, even though I understand that is the new reality. * I don't like the lack of an author email address. I also tried: first_strip_reply_to = No But that means a normal reply will go to both the list & the author. So the author will get 2 copies, and I don't feel that is desirable, even though it seems to be the only way to include the author's email address. FEATURE REQUEST: A setting to control the new "From" line. Instead of FROM: Author_Name via ListName <everyb...@lists.example.com> I want to request that it offer the option to let the list admin config what goes there after the author's name. I would use this setting to say: FROM: Author_Name via Club Name <everyb...@example.com> substituted "Club Name" for "List Name", and used explicit reply_to_address instead of list address.
