  So, I'm the guilty party who has been editing the Fetchmail Howto lately. 
(http://wiki.tmda.net/TmdaFetchMailHowTo).
  After talking a bit with Hannu Kotipalo, the author of the C xtmdaheader 
program, I am a little confused about what the correct behavior should be for 
xtmdaheader.

  Hannu's version (if I correctly understand):
  1. Looks for an address in To that matches user(.*)@host
      if one is found, use it as RECIPIENT.
  2. Looks for an address in CC that matches user(.*)@host
      if one is found, use it as RECIPIENT.
  3. Otherwise, use the last address found in a Received header.

  It's #3 that I'm not sure is correct, for the case of mailing list email.

  I *think* that mailing list mail should have the email address I subscribed 
to the list with as RECIPIENT (and this address is in the Received headers).

  So... can someone who is running TMDA on a mail server look at their 
incoming log for this message and let me know if TMDA thought the recipient 
was tmda-users, or if it was the address that you subscribed with?

thank you,
