I recently joined a discussion group hosted by yahoo groups. I'd like to add a trusted sender for the group, but the messages actually appear to be coming directly from the other group users, and the yahoogroups address is in the Reply-To field. Is there any way to add the group as a whole as a trusted sender?

Set the trusted or (better) exclusive sender as the groups "To:" address, i.e. example@yahoogruoups.com

I tried adding the yahoo groups email address as a trusted sender, but it didn't help. I did think of a few other solutions, though, which I'll share in case anyone else has this problem:

- set my group preferences so that I receive messages in a digest, in which case the digests should all come from one address, which I could then add as a trusted sender
- don't have messages delivered to me at all, and just check the group itself for new messages
- use the RSS feed for the group to have messages available through my newsreader (part of my email program)

are the messages always "to:" the same address? If so, add that address as the exclusive sender for the address (not a trusted sender for you account).

Does exclusive sender logic examine both To & From headers?

Does this mean that the SG exclusive sender logic examines BOTH the From and To email headers to determine validity? [If so, then this approach should work for "individual emails" mode subscriptions to Yahoo Groups since, as josh asked, they are all sent To a specific address.]

Does the SG trusted sender logic also examine BOTH the From and To headers to determine validity? [Sounds like it doesn't, and hence the "not a trusted sender..." comment.]

In http://bbs.spamgourmet.com/viewtopic.php?t=203, josh already answered this: Only the exclusive sender logic examines both To and From headers. The trusted sender logic does not.
