Now here is the actual "problem": I have another friend (person B) who is not a member of the list. When she recently sent me an email from her phone, the private email address of this first person (person A, a member of the list) showed up in her (person B's) email headers.
Which headers? Are you talking about person A's address showing up as the From address of person B's emails? Or some other header?
There is absolutely no other connection between these two persons, except of course for myself.
There definitely seems to be something odd with your email headers. I've had a *very* brief look at a few, and:
- Fresh emails from you starting a new thread often contain an
In-Reply-To and Reference header. For instance, in one fresh email from you back in 2020, it included an In-Reply-To pointing to
201802171815.09906.gheskett@shentel.netwhich seems to be an email from 2018.
- When you reply to an existing email, the Reference header refers
to somebody *other* than the person whose email you replied to.
- And your emails have what look to me like corrupt header lines,
such as this one:
+h=from:reply-to:to:subject:date:user-agent:references:in-reply-to:m im e-version:content-type:message-id;
which nobody else seems to have (at least not in my brief investigation). The leading + sign is actually a space or newline.
So something is not happy in your emails.
Where would I check that?, I'll see if I can fix it.

A copy/paste of the whole header as it leaves here for that last message: wordwrap off.

I have no clue where that References: line is coming from. It does not exist in any menu I can find.
Here is a puzzle though:
gene@coyote:~$ locate kmailrc /home/gene/.trinity/share/config/kmailrc
looking thru it with geany, I see two potentiial buffer overflows, the last, 5088th line is 2415 chars long. in the title [test-index],removed= long list of comma seperated 7 digit numbers.
backing up, to line 4542. under [general], "recent addresses" is 1428 chars long.
Everything else looks legit to these eyes.
Anyplace else that bears looking into?
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
