  1. > Many of my users send mail to my lists from Netscape. Unfortunately,

  2. > it seems to munge out the hostname from the Sender: header, so that

  3. > "nick@zork.net" would have a "Sender: nick" header. Mailman seems to

  4. > pay undue attention to this header when deciding if the user is

  5. > authorized to post or not. Mailman also won't let me add in any

  6. > address that doesn't have an at sign to the approved posters box in

  7. > the privacy options. As a matter of fact, once it sees an incomplete

  8. > address, it truncates the list right there.

  9. This was reported back in August and added to the Jitterbug bug

  10. database for Mailman.

  11. The only solution that I know of is to preprocess the list with

  12. a procmail recipe that in turn removes the existing Sender: header

  13. if it matches certain criteria, then replaces it with the next

  14. most obvious address retrieved via 'formail -r'.

  15. It's a hack, but it may help until this gets fixed. (For what it's

  16. worth, Netscape isn't exactly doing RFC-compliant things either

  17. by not providing a fully qualified address).

  18. I have no idea about your question regarding forwarded messages and

  19. pipermail.
