Actually I think what happened is a combination of 2 bugs in gmane and mailman.
When I sent the email via gmane.org, a bug in gmane made it accidently included
a header fragment in my message, then when mailman tried to forward it to each
subscriber, it must have used a bad rewrite rule (supposed to rewrite Sender:
and Errors-To: headers in a way unique to each subscriber), but this rule failed
to notice that these lines where part of the email body instead of the headers.

That would explain why subscribers see a portion of their email address in these
lines.
