Incidentally I'm confused about your concern about Sender. Sender has almost no significance for email afaik. It has specified behaviour for NNTP from whence it was copied but has no behaviour specified for mail. It's supposed to be the actual account that generated the email independent of how they want to appear. It's not clear how it's useful but if it's useful for anything it's reporting abuse to webmail providers so signing it seems sensible to me and I don't see any reason for list software to be concerned with it at all. Afaik MUAs have very little behaviour affected by them. Gmail displays it (which generally only confuses people). Yahoo uses it to authenticate mailing list management emails which prevents me from unsubscribing from lists there. Older versions of Exchange actually displayed it in preference to the From header whictih *really* confused people but afaik that's no longer the case. At least I haven't received any emails from Exchange users to my gmail account directly in a long time. -- greg -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
