Hi There;

Here's a suggestion:

I have mailing lists working (except for the bloody body regexp). What I have noticed is this:

1) If I disable user creation for each incoming message (I don't want a huge collection of new users), it can break any attempts to reply to a post from within the forum. I would suggest storage of the sender's email in spite of the fact that a user is not being created. Then, when you reply to a mailing list post from within the forum, Cc: the stored address.

2) I have noticed that when trying to send a post, the emails get sent to my anonymous user. I think it would be better to have the To: address contain the mailing list address, with the Cc: being either the original poster if a new user is created for each incoming message, or the stored email as described in point 1.
