Yea, unless you want to do the yahoo way and rewrite the email From:. The advice I give people is to not use yahoo/hotmail and the arrl.net forwarders. gmail seams to be rather easy to deal with IMO, but some people will just tag it as spam rather than unsubscribe.
Yes, I have seen legitimate email suddenly marked as spam and suspected people just do that. I try and train it back the other way.
Can you change the reply address to be the list? As it's a discussion list this makes it easier to reply and keeps people from cluttering up members boxes with needless direct replies.
This is one of those issues that will cause dissension, and much has been written about the issue on the Internet. I'm happy with the way things are. Unfortunately, there's a lot of brain dead email clients out there that don't handle mailing lists properly. I use Thunderbird, which has a "Reply List" button when I'm reading messages from a list setup like this. Quite neat, and I get the option of replying to the original sender or the list if I want or need to as well. Works well, when the list is hosted by a decent list server such as Mailman (as this one is).
Can we make the archives public to make them searchable?
Could be useful.
