Hi-
I reported a bug on this but I thought I'd also post here, becuause I might try to correct this myself (and any advice would be appreciated).
Basically, when a message is sent to the admin address (i.e. mailman-developers-admin@python.org), the envelope sender is left untouched when the message is resent. I don't think this is a good idea. If an address on the admin list is not on the local host, and the email is not sent from the local host, then you basically have a message from a non-local address to a non-local address, which is a no-no in many anti-spam-relaying setups. It would make much more sense to set the envelope sender to the list-admin address.
