Am I missing something here? When this remainder was sent in January, I noted that it had been sent to 'XCode Users', and now it's been sent to 'XCode Users' again. I just don't get it...

I'm receiving the email as "Xcode Users", as per the headers of the message.


However, if I compose an email, it auto completes as "XCode Users' List".

So, I would bet that the list was misconfigured to barf up the wrong label at some point.

Actually, now that I have deleted the bogus entry from the previous recipients in Mail, it seems to be showing up correctly now.

If you haven't set up an Address Book card for the xcode- email@hidden address yourself, Mail will glom on to some name for it on some piece of incoming mail. I expect it's deterministic but I don't know what the algorithm is.

I have an address book entry for the list, it doesn't have "XCode" in it, and I still saw that. According to Mail the raw source contains:

Are you saying my copy of Mail is responsible for that "XCode?"

So at some point somebody sent main to "Xcode Users' List" as configured in their Address Book, and as you were unconfigured, that's what you got — and it stuck.

I see different names for outgoing messages to xocde-users depending on what machine I mail from, as each mail client has cached a different name.

Okay, this is off topic, but is there any way to configure Mail to only use the addresses from my address book for auto complete when I'm addressing e-mails? If I type "chris" there are 27 entries in the drop-down list, the vast majority of which are addresses to which I've responded at some point or other but just clutter the list now, and the address Mail has suggested is not one to which I would ever manually address a message. This makes auto completion and the drop down list much less useful than they could be (more of an annoyance than a feature, really). As features go, this one strikes me as falling under the heading of "just because you can doesn't mean you should."
