and as you notice, the sender names are not "rajesh menon", or "brian schmidt", or anyone on the list, but just a random name.
No, but as you notice, the mail address being used is [EMAIL PROTECTED], even if I put up another name as a front for that address, the address will still be what is checked on.
The reason for replying to the subscribe mail is to check that the mail-address used is in fact valid, and not just bogus address where the mails would just get bounced back.
Again, I'm not 100% sure about all this, I only have a very basic understanding of how the entire mail system works.
Sincerely
Brian Schmidt
