And counter-productive, because it is an anti-feature, something that

I wasn't aware that comp.lang.python was a news-to-mail gateway. How can
one tell the difference between news groups that use a news-to-mail

by reading the group's FAQ, perhaps?

Could whoever is responsible for the gateway that is grabbing
my postings off of Usenet and e-mailing them out please fix the
headers in the mail messages so that I don't get the bounce
messages?
While you're at it, might as well fix it for everybody else
too. ;)
Its a bit rude t
Whould whoever is gatewaying c.l.p postings to a mailing list
_please_ remove the return addresses on the postings so we
