What Mailman version are you using? In the current version (2.1.18-1) you should be seeing the either the author's display name from her From: header or if none and From: a list member, the members real name from the membership list, or if none, at least the local part of the email address. Also, the author's original From: will be in Reply-To: in every case, except see bug <https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1318025>. > List members are unable to reply off-list to the author, and they don't even > know who the author is. Again, what is your Mailman version and what are your Reply-To munging settings. In versions older than 2.1.18, I think you should still see the author's address in Reply-To: if first_strip_reply_to is No. > Would it be a reasonable feature request to add the author's name & email > address as a X-Header?

I don't think it's necessary. If the author's address isn't in Reply-To:, it should be, and the absence is a bug.
