Hi all

As more and more sites are using DKIM signing or emails (and DMARC),

address so that the messages come from the mailing list itself.  It
also adds a Reply-To: header with the original sender's address.

So a message from me to the list will now have

The only real downside to this (I think) is that if you take a message
from the list containing a patch and apply that to a git tree you will
have to fix up the Author appropriately.
This has now been turned on (hopefully :-)).
