No. As others have said, it is used mostly for admin uses -- so the list admins have a "real name" for E-Mail addresses. And it is possible to allow list members see the member list and this info is displayed in that case as well. Mailman does not add that info to the headers. That is always left to the client mail software, and is entirely configured by settings available to end-users. > > However, I noticed that your messages, prior to the fix, did provide a > name in that field.
