[TFDA] Meta: Post from the address which is subscribed to the list.

Hey all,

Just a friendly reminder:

Posts which come from an address which is not subscribed to the TFDA
list will be automatically discarded.  The mail won't go out to the
list and you won't get any notification that the mail hasn't gone
through.

If you need to post, make sure the From: line in your message is
actually subscribed to the list.  You can subscribe multiple email
addresses to the list, and set the alternative ones to "nomail" to
avoid getting multiple copies.

This problem most often occurs for people who have multiple addresses
and forward their email around to consolidate.

This is a server-wide adminitrator setting and we can't override it.
It is done to prevent the problem of bounced spam where someone spoofs
the From: line of a spam.  Either the spam goes out to the list, or
the spam bounces back to an innocent poster
