Hi folks,

I'm trying to customize the header or footer message to include the original poster's e-mail or information about unsubscribing from the list.

Edit List Config -> Edit list templates -> Edit Message footer.

Add in conent such as:

[% listname %]
Original poster: [% headers.item('x-original-from') %]

No variable expansion.  I get that literal text added as the footer.  Is this a bug, or am I just doing this wrong?  (I realize x-original-from might not work anyway, in which case I'll send a feature request later.  But even [% listname %] doesn't work.


Question #2: Is there a way to turn off the "your message has been sent to the moderator" notification sent to the poster in a moderated list?  I have a list we'd like to put in a sort of stealth-moderation mode.

Thanks as always,

  - Erik
