Interesting. The problem is definitely not on your end at all, though I first noticed this with your recent posts. Other posts are showing up a bit weirdly too. The problem appears to be partly in my Thunderbird client, and partly the mailing list gateway. And maybe Gmail is screwing things up too. Usenet-orginating posts look fine. For example: From: Marko Rauhamaa <ma...@pacujo.net> Newsgroups: comp.lang.python Whereas email ones are sometimes looking like this: From: Mark Lawrence via Python-list <python-list@python.org> Reply-To: Mark Lawrence <breamore...@yahoo.co.uk> Thunderbird on my machine is only seeing the From email address (python-list@python.org) and I must have that in my address list somewhere as "python." What's odder is that my own messages show up as "From: torr...@gmail.com" and not "via Python-list <python-list@python.org>". -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
