Tech-Talk messages are keeping the original sender in the "From:"

The "tech-talk-bounces" address is added in the "Sender:" and - more
importantly - "Errors-To:" headers to direct mail bounces to
mailman's automated bounce-handling mechanism.

This fully complies to the relevant RFCs and works without any
problem on most mail clients and with ten-thousands of lists that are
handled by mailman world-wide.
What mail client are you using that shows this erroneous behavior?

If it's supposed to work like that it probably does.
I use pine when I'm at home, seamonkey when I'm at work.

Those should be fine.

I know that Outlook does a bunch of non-compliant weird things wrt
replying to mails, so I was fearing the worst....
Happy mailing!
