I have senders email addresses hidden to protect privacy and prevent spam abuse.
Occasionally, I - as the administrator - need to see the actual poster of a message sent by a member. They sent an inappropriate message, or perhaps their email is spam virus infected and they are unknowingly spamming. When I go to archives, all I can find in the emails is the obfuscated information about a message, but not the actual senders email address. If they don't sig the email, I have no way to know who they are.
That's why the setting is called anonymous_list. You arenn't supposed to be able to determine who sent a post from the received post or the archives.
How can I find out, while maintaining privacy so that addresses are not exposed to the list at large?
The only place you can find this information is in mailman's 'post' log. For each post, there will be an entry like "post to <LISTNAME> from <contents of original From: header> anonymized".
If you don't have access to the Mailman logs on the server, you will have to get this information from someone who does.
