Hi Mark,
Thanks for the prompt reply! The problem was my settings in my
Thunderbird mail client and NOT mailman. So, you can mark this as solved!
As you suggested, I checked the From: field in the message source and it
was including the sender's "name via" as it should. I then checked it
with my webmail clients, Squirrelmail and Horde, which also properly
displayed the sender's name. Then, I discovered a setting in
Thunderbird which caused my problem at: Edit > Preferences > Advanced >
"Show only display name for people in my address book" which was
checked. When I unchecked this then the sender's name started showing
up properly in Thunderbird too. The problem was caused by my having
that specific mailing list address in my Thunderbird address book
whereas all of my other mailing lists are not in my address book. This
may help y'all in the future for Thunderbird users since having that
preference checked is the default Thunderbird setting and will prevent
the sender's name from appearing in the From: header for mailing lists
that are in the Thunderbird address book.
Again, thanks for your reply. Your suggestion sent me directly to the
cause of the problem.

Hello,
I am runningseveral mailing lists with mailman version 2.1.18-1. Oneof
my mailing lists does not ever show the sender's name in the From:
headerfor DMARC domain policy=reject while the rest of my lists do show
the sender's name in the From: header. I have compared the individual
list settings and cannot find anything different. The list settings for
the list that isn't showing the sender's name are as follows_:
_General Options:
from_is_list = No
anonymous_list = No
first_strip_reply_to = No
reply_goes_to_list = "This list"
Privacy options > Sender filters:
dmarc_moderation_action = Munge From
dmarc_quarantine_moderation_action = Yes
My understanding is that one of the following should be displayed for a
DMARC domainpolicy=reject:
The author's display name fromtheir 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 emailaddress.
This understanding is correct.
Does anybody have any idea what setting that I need to change to fix this?
It should work with the settings you have.
If you look at the raw message source of one of these messages from the
list, what does the From: look like? Is it
From: via LISTNAME<[email protected]>
with only a single space between 'From:' and 'via' or something else?
Also, what is in the Reply-To: header in addition to the list posting
address?
There is a bug in this area. See
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1318025>. If these posts are
all from a single user, it could be due to a missing or unparseable
From: header in the incoming mail.
