Am I right that "envelope sender" is just a relay proxy address, so To: field will still contain my email? Is it possible to add an option to Mailman itself to strip +token before processing email addresses? Does email standard allow to use +token addresses for multiple users? > Thus you are left with a couple of other options.

Seems easy, but isn't it possible to forge Reply-To: address to spam Mailman lists? I'd like to ensure there is some kind protection to avoid spam that pretends to be from the Group. The same concern is about X-BeenThere header solution. > So, if you add <group_n...@googlegroups.com> as a member of the mailman > list (with no password reminders and no mail delivery), and either set > the google group "Replies to messages" to "Replies are sent to the > whole group" or add the above SENDER_HEADERS line to mm_cfg.py, posts > arriving via the group will be seen as member posts. If I set "no mail delivery" then how the Group receive messages for reading from the web? Please, CC.
