This states: """ 4) Any held message that is later approved for distribution on the mailing list should appear on the list as a normal posting (e.g., with the proper sender in the From address, etc.). """ Later, however, you write:
Including someone's private subscription address is not done for a normal posting. Doing it for a held message is a violation of the rule above, no?[...] However, in
the second message, he manually inserted my subscription address,
despite my previous comments about private subscription addresses
and forged unsubscription requests. (Was this malicious, or was it
just mind-bogglingly stupid?)
Or perhaps, it was to make it clear to the poster which address the posting was coming from, since there seems to be confusion at times about whether someone is posting from the same address to which they are subscribed.
