Summary: Pipermail won't resolve author names of aol.com addresses

Initial Comment:
Pipermail does not resolve the "author" of emails sent from aol.com. Instead, Pipermail gives the email address of the listserve.

For example: "John" <user@aol.com>
is resolved by pipermail as:  listname@foo.com
and not as John.

This bug only occurs for users of aol.com addresses.

Well, this remains (and has always been) a problem for my
lists. I have never had a user posting with an aol.com
address that this hasn't been the case with. 

Currently my solution is to replace the wrong address shown
(philly_ambient@phobos.serve.com) with a generic or balnk mark.

Here is the html source of a typical email from our
pipermail archive, and below it the source email with headers.

I don't know why pipermail would treat my aol subscribers
different either. But it is.

Bizarre.  I've never seen this, and I can't see any reason
why Pipermail would treat aol.com addresses any different.
