My knowledge of anonymous mailing lists is a bit less. But from what I
understand, the address for the mailbox would not have a display name for
anonymity purposes whereas the user can have a display name, importing
which may cause anonymity concerns.
The case we handled was regarding the welcome message. The display name
property of the address was not actually changed. So if the user has not
supplied a display name for the address, the display name will remain empty
in that case. Only the welcome message will temporarily use the user
display name. Would that still be a problem in this case?

I might be wrong here if my interpretation of the example is wrong!
