Has there been a change in Git Mailing List settings?
Up until sometime late yesterday, messages from the list came from git-owner@vger.kernel.org, on behalf of the originator.  Now messages are coming directly from the originator.  This means my Inbox rules have stopped working.

Is this a deliberate change?  Unexpected change in mailing list software?  Will it be changed back?  

Regards,
Richard.

Not to my knowledge. The smtp-level envelope from on all of the messages
I've received is git-owner@vger.kernel.org. Is there some other
mechanism you might be filtering on?

(If you're not already, a reliable way to detect list messages is by the
List-ID or X-Mailing-List headers, both of which are sent by the list
software).

This may be further complicated, though, by the fact that the convention
on this list is to cc people in responses. So you may receive a non-list
copy of such a response. Though I don't see you cc'd on a lot of
responses lately.

Comparing <20200911143321.GA2374950@coredump.intra.peff.net> with the 
message I'm replying to so that I'd have messages which I would expect 
to be similar before the list handling I see that that older message 
included the header

   Sender: git-owner@vger.kernel.org

But the newer message does not have a Sender: header.

I don't know if that was a deliberate change.

Yes, since I've been using the List-ID header for filtering for a long 
time now, I hadn't noticed that the Sender: header was no longer being 
sent.

including a Sender header as of a few days ago]

Ah, thanks. I even looked for a Sender header, but I stupidly looked at
too-recent messages, which of course didn't have one. :)

According to my local archive, we stopped getting Sender headers around
1600296026 (that's the timestamp when I received it), which was

  https://lore.kernel.org/git/20200916211150.GA617237@coredump.intra.peff.net/

The message I received right before that was:

  Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2020 14:25:42 -0700
  Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/5] t/test-terminal: avoid non-inclusive language
  https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqo8m5v2g9.fsf@gitster.c.googlers.com/

which does have a Sender header (note those are out of order if you
believe the client-side Date headers).

I don't know, but we don't really admin the list ourselves. kernel.org
folks do, so they might have input.

You cc'd postmaster@vger, which is the right set of people -- it's 
managed by a different crew than the rest of kernel.org.

[RK] Yes, those are the two messages either side of the change as I see it.  
[RK] I'm using Outlook (it's a work computer) so I probably don't have the level of control that some other mail readers do, and everything gets a load of spam-filter headers added, making the headers harder to read.  By adding "To: Git" I seem to have got my filters working again under the new, Sender-less, scheme.  That is even working for messages where the Git list is CC-ed rather than Sent to.


[RK] Regards,
[RK] Richard.
