Look at the list headers. How does the list identify itself? Look for a List-Post header. Do you see something like this? List-Post: <mailto:[email protected]> Did you list a mutf configuration listing: subscribe [email protected] If so that mismatch is creating your problem. I have exactly this problem with a different mailing list. Adjusting the mutt subscribe configuration to be *only* this should solve the problem. subscribe [email protected] Remove any subscription config for [email protected]. Setting it will create the problem. Removing it should fix it. At least it works that way for me. > I can't see any way to prevent the generation of the double address, it > happens because mutt sees two list addresses in the headers and that's > just an idiosyncrasy of the list that I can do nothing about.

I mean, please try the suggested configuration I show above. You are correct that you will not see the 'L' flag in the index listing for those messages that use the short address. You will only see it for messages that use the long address. But that won't affect you ability to list-reply to any of the mailing list since the mailing list is setting the expected mailing headers. Please try it as it should work anyway. It works that way for me. > So, I want a way to edit the header before sending the message if it has > the two addresses as above. Before deducing the above configuration for my problem mailing list I had piped messages from that mailing list through a procmail rule to "fix" the headers. That worked. But eventually I was able to use the adjusted configuration above and stop munging the mailing list messages. Bob
