Yes, but many, including myself; are frustrated by how their MUA behaves as a result, and some even resorting to custom procmail rules to work around it.
Anyone care to share a tested procmail recipe to (locally here, after receipt) retroactively correct From: to what the sender specified, then remove the spurious MLM-added Reply-To: line? Thanks in advance.
I don't have a working and tested rule but it should be possible to get procmail to: 1. delete the From: header 2. rename the Reply-To: header to From: Unfortunately, there's no way of restoring any original Reply-To header - the list is now configured to destroy that. in my case, I already have a rule from years ago renaming Reply-To to X-Old-Reply-To to reduce the annoyance of previous manifestations of Reply-To munging abominations: # rename Reply-To header :0 fhw | /usr/bin/formail -R Reply-To X-Old-Reply-To Without testing, i'd guess that renaming Reply-To: to From: could be: # rename Reply-To: header to From: :0 fhw * (^TO|^FROM|^FROM_DAEMON|^Sender:|^X-Been-There:|^List-[^:]*:).*@(lists.)?luv\.asn\.au | /usr/bin/formail -R Reply-To From -U From or possibly: | /usr/bin/formail -R Reply-To From | /usr/bin/formail -U From (i.e. rename Reply-To to From, and then delete all but the *last* From: header) craig -- craig sanders <cas@taz.net.au>
