Billy,
Since you created that userid almost every email originated message is being delivered under this account. I looked today and this email account has generated 39 messages in two days. Looking at the text of these messages and they are all for mail various email users.
So whatever you changed made it worse and I would change it back. You might also consider deleting this account on both servers.

Unfortunately, it's not the userid that is causing the problem.
From what I can tell, the header info that is in the e-mail coming from the mailing list has changed.
The FUDforum import script uses the header info to determine which e-mail address send the message, and from that which forum userid to associate the incoming message. The "From" header used to be set to the e-mail of the actual person that sent the e-mail.
Now, it is being set to something that looks like this:
From: Billy Massey via Gmclist <gmclist@gmcnet_mailserver_domain.org>
It includes a "Cc:" header that looks something like this
Cc: Billy Massey <billies@correcct_email_address.net>
Previously, there was no "Cc:" header and the from header looked something like this:
From: Billy Massey <billies@correct_email_address.net>
So the import script grabs the info from the "From:" header, sees the "gmclist@gmcnet_mailserver_domain.org" e-mail, looks up that e-mail in the user database (now assigned to the userid "gmc-email-list"), and that message shows up in the forum as coming from the userid "gmc-email-list". That is why every message that is originated from the e-mail list, now belongs to the userid "gmc-email-list".
I'm guessing this is a result from a upgrade to the mailing list software (just a guess), as the import script has not changed since 2014.
Anybody with some strong PHP skills what to take on modifying the import script?

Eugene,
I can take a look at the script if you want to send me a copy. It
shouldn't be too hard to switch which field in the header it's looking at.

Ethan,
Take a look at this folder:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/f63pptmqy7kuk2b/AABgGkJgQAtQW5H9S_tmC50Ka?dl=0
The main script is called maillist.php. There are two includes folders, global and theme that it is pulling functions from. At first glance, it looks like the global-include file named mime_decode.inc is where the functions to parse the message headers are located and where it creates a new instance of $emsg = new fud_mime_msg();.
I'm getting ready to hit the road for the Big Bend area and will have limited to no internet access for the next few weeks.
