I know what you mean. I had to do some aliasing-tricks (outside of Mojo)
to get mail-archive.com to accept the list because of this reason.
I have no option to change that behaviour.

???
I have no problem with automatically sorting here.
If you cannot sort for "Reply-To: OSS <oss@isoc-vn.org>",
or "any header contains <oss@isoc-vn.org>"
then I could hack in again a header "X-Mailing-List: oss@isoc-vn.org",
as I did previously already with an older version.

Depending on the kind of mail, I also write "Dear Andre", like this one,
although it goes out to everybody. In this case I think it is relevant to
the list, therefore I don't send only to you.

BTW,
my previous alert regarding case sensitivity was because
1) I needed last time maybe 4 minutes to install the new version, but then
spend 4 hours or so with a test mail, until I found out, that the address
is case sensitive.
2) I saw in the last days some people unsubscribing and shortly after that
subscribing again, or telling somebody else to forward their mail to the
list, so I was assuming, that some people might have problems to post to
the list.

Greetings,
Stefan
