[Mailman-Users] Possibly OT: VERP to plussed addresses
I have noticed that Mailman seems to be capable to correctly parse bounces that come from a plussed address. Example: I'm subscribed to this list with cite+mailman-us...@example.net so the sender address looks like this: mailman-users-bounces+cite+mailman-users=example@python.org While it's very nice that this is working - _why_ does it work? Does Mailman simply start at the leftmost +? Oh, and BTW: Happy 1st of a month, python.org listmasters! Enjoy your bounces ;-) Stefan -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
