Stephen,
Much appreciated. Checking for aol.com and yahoo.com here alone will not work. I have a bunch of other subscribers that have accounts with providers that are owned by Yahoo (mostly) and AOL, but whose addresses are not of this form. I would have to do this for all addresses, to be safe.
If I do this and add the bit about the Reply-To, what would the code look like?
Yours,

Subscribers at such sites may have trouble receiving mail, and your list(s) may be tagged as suspicious.
I would recommend the From-munging approach:
name, addr = parseadder(msg.get('from')) if addr.endswith('aol.com') or addr.endswith('yahoo.com'): # I forget what happens if it's a bare address name = "%s (%s) via list" % (name if name else "Anonymous", addr) addr = <list-post address> del msg['from'] msg['from'] = formataddr((name, addr))
Mark (or you) probably have better code, and in some cases you may want to add the addr to the Reply-To field.
< del msg['from'] < msg['from'] = formataddr((name, addrs)) \ No newline at end of file
