One of my RPlist users complained that his posts were rejected for no valid
reason. His message's From: field matched his subscription address. I asked
him to post again with a Cc: to rplist-request. I found that:
- he is subscribed as [log in to unmask], so listserv must have seen
this address in his subscription request
- the copy of his message that I received at rplist-request also showed From:
[log in to unmask]
- his post was rejected as coming from [log in to unmask] (see rejection below)
How is it possible that two copies of the same message, one sent to rplist and
the other to rplist-request, show different addresses in their From fields?
NB: I fixed the problem by ADDing the "wrong" address, but I'm still curious
to know what's happening.
