Using Mailman? External Recipients May See a Change in the “From” Address
Starting April 25, 2024, when you send an email using Mailman mailing list software, those who get your message may notice a modification in the "From" address — if they use an external email service provider, like Google or Yahoo.
For these recipients, the "From" address could show a list-specific address, such as <
No impact to stanford.edu. Emails sent from a stanford.edu address or to recipients using a stanford.edu address will not be impacted. No change for senders. Your experience as a sender will stay the same, and you can continue using Mailman mailing list tools as usual.
