If the email address doesn't match a user it sends an error message back, and will not create a post.
As far as the replies coming from someone else keep in mind, unlike yahoo mailing lists, with this modification, NOONE sees your email address!!
The emails come tagged as from: Poster's name <reply to email address>
So your email address is even more protected then normal mailing lists allow.
