Re: [Mailman-Developers] Mailman password and administrative reminders

What about sending the messages out with multiple addresses in the From header? It's a little weird, but is RFC legal, and that way each reminder will bounce to all of the lists whose password is listed in the email.
Bounces go to the *envelope* sender address not the From: address.

Why not 'X-From:' header fields, one for each list, to make it easy for a script to do something sensible? Also perhaps also 'X-To' for to be reliable and easy after forwarding and header munging and body replacement. Some "bounces" seem to take the attitude that you better damn well know who you sent the mail to!
