Hi,
I am a newbie to Mailman and cpanel and I need some help, please. I have set up a mailing list for my tennis club (about 300 on list) and it seems to work ok BUT each recipient only sees the mailing list name rather than his own email name in the 'to' box.
If you want this, you have to set the list's Non-digest options -> personalize setting to Full Personalization. If you do not see the 'personalize' settings on the admin Non-digest options page, you need to set
OWNERS_CAN_ENABLE_PERSONALIZATION = Yes
in mm_cfg.py, but if this is a hosted cPanel installation, you probably can't do that.
One of the recipients recently did a 'reply to all' and consequently sent his reply to the whole mailing list. I'm sure there must be a way to prevent this but I can't find it!
No, there is not. Even if you enable Full Personalization, the list posting address will be put in Cc: to facilitate replying to the list so Reply-all will always include the list.
If this is an "announce" type list where members shouldn't post to the list, see <https://wiki.list.org/x/4030685> for how to set that up, but if it is a list where members are allowed to post, you can't prevent reply-all going to the list unless you moderate all posts and don't accept those you don't want on the list.
