I disagree with this idea and I don't want the addresses munged. It is
very
useful being able to reply to someone and I will just hit reply to
reply to
someone. If the mail bounces I won't waste any more time contacting
them.
Overall not one list that I am on munges email addresses and when
people do
it to their own addresses they often end up getting no help at all. I
see
that on the python and zope lists a fair bit.
Also how would munging help anyway when you have the unmunged addresses
