Cygwin mailing list issues

[Chris Wagner]

Hi folks, I'm having some issues with getting mail from the Cygwin list.

The first one is that I'm getting a decent number of messages diverted 
into spam holding over protocol violations.  For example this one has 
two reply-to headers.

Reply-To: cygwin@cygwin.com
Authentication-Results: sourceware.org; auth=none
 From: Brian Inglis <Brian.Inglis@SystematicSw.ab.ca>
Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] [New] cpuid 20200211
Reply-To: Cygwin Announcements <cygwin-announce@cygwin.com>
To: cygwin@cygwin.com
Message-Id: 
<announce.424e2d26-0f59-1978-92be-4d753512a410@SystematicSw.ab.ca>
Date: Sun, 23 Feb 2020 22:56:31 -0700
X-Spampanel-Evidence: Bad header count.


The second issue is causing some of the list mail to not be filtered.  I 
started getting messages like this a couple days ago.  The list-id 
header is this

List-Id: Cygwin mailing list <cygwin.cygwin.com>

instead of

List-Id: <cygwin.cygwin.com>

like 99% of the mail.  Is this an error or the new normal?


Thanks.

We are investigating this.

sourceware.org (aka cygwin.com) is new hardware and new mailinglist
software.  It's the new normal.

This particular issue at least should be fixed.  There may be other
reply-to like problems that still need to be weeded out.
