[asterisk-dev] Mailing List Future

I think we are getting off track here,

email can come from anywhere

like mine when i send an email it comes from "Paul Kudla <paul at scom.ca>" 
which is perfectly normal, if i sent an email from :

"Paul Kudla <paul at group.io>"

that would be wrong because the email address does not exist and would 
eventually bounce on most system or more importantly get blocked in 
someone's spam filter because it is unknown to the end user.

Again trying to help


the issue creeps in when a mail system tries to send with a different 
send email address then what is in the headers.

My or any other system does not block ordinary email, and the tmda (in 
my case) will trap it for approval. I can catch and kinda approve these 
but its one at a time when headers get messed with.

The issues being found here is email from for example

Asterisk Developers Mailing List <asterisk-dev at lists.digium.com>

is now show as

Asterisk Developers Mailing List <asterisk-dev at group.io>

which in its self kinda correct but but group.io should really be a 
proper domain related to asterisk like the

"<asterisk-dev at lists.digium.com"

was

fyi


Hope this clarifies, asterisk mailing list really needs to come from an 
asterisk domain (or sub domain) NOT groups.io

can you get n asterisk.groups.io
(like the digium one? - lists.digium.com)

this would resolve to identy issues.




Have A Happy Friday !!!
