Discussions about mail delivery and filtering methods are outside the
scope of this mailing list.

I would appreciate it if people would let this thread die.

In case it was lost in the noise, the "Sender: " field is back.
If you were filtering on it before you can now filter on this again.
The name of the mailing list is now cygwin AT sourceware DOT cygnus DOT com .

Beep.
