Hi, i got unsubscribed a second time: Date: Mon, 11 Oct 2021 07:45:53 +0000 (UTC) From: debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org Message-Id: <20211011074553.c8c2820...@bendel.debian.org>
My proposal is to disable the auto unsubscription feature, which is an unusual behavior of a mailing list. It is just too vulnerable to external interference.

Further i doubt that any normal mail server can be configured to produce fake bounces.

I still riddle whether the test mails have been discontinued after only one day of use, or whether my test mail fell into the same pit at GMX as did the (actually unsuspicious) mail From: Pierre-Elliott =?utf-8?Q?B=C3=A9cue?= <p...@debian.org>> Subject: Re: Then it happened to me...

I remember to have had own mails rejected by GMX when i wrote non-ASCII characters in the Subject: header. But i did not bother to encode them as quoted printable. RFC 2047 permits such a From line: "5. Use of encoded-words in message headers An 'encoded-word' may appear in a message header or body part header according to the following rules: [...] (3) As a replacement for a 'word' entity within a 'phrase', for example, one that precedes an address in a From, To, or Cc header. [...] " In "8. Examples" there is no "utf-8" to see, but the examples with =?ISO-8859-1?Q? ... ?= look similar enough. We cannot deny a list user the right to write his own name into "From:". And hardly i can influence GMX to accept Q-encoded UTF-8. Whatever, this cannot be the same reason why GMX would bounce a test mail from listmas...@lists.debian.org as quited by piorunz in https://lists.debian.org/msgid-search/9492fecf-89a8-3932-7740-f437beac5...@gmx.com Date: Fri, 8 Oct 2021 19:41:31 +0100 So i assume that such a mail was not sent to me. Pity. It seemed to be a good idea to reduce the false unsubscriptions. Have a nice day :) Thomas
