If somebody try to answer _from the list_, the "to" field of the answer have _two_ values, one for the mailing list, the other for the newsgroup. This second one is unusefull and thunderbird do not like it and one have to remoive it by hand to send the answer.
below the headers of a mail read on the mailing list and send from the newsgroup.
is there something I can do to remove the "Newsgroups: linux-31" in excess?
You can do this a couple of ways in Mailman. The recommended way is a custom handler (because it survives Mailman upgrades). See the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/l4A9>.
The handler itself would be extremely simple, e.g. just the following two lines.
def process(mlist, msg, msgdata): del msg['newsgroups']
This removes the header in the pipeline before the message is delivered to the list.
Another possibility is to delete the header in Mailman's cron/gate_news before the message is queued in Mailman. This would require adding the line
del msg['newsgroups']
just before the lines
# Post the message to the locked list
inq = get_switchboard(mm_cfg.INQUEUE_DIR)
in cron/gate_news. This change is simpler than implementing the custom handler, but it requires re-applying the change following any Mailman update.
