None of my other lists have this problem.
I think that what this mailing list does is that it leaves a Reply-To field in if it's there, and otherwise sets it to its own address. Whereas other lists just set the Reply-To to the list address hard. Since replies to personal mail will normally go to yourself, and don't need a Reply-To, and other lists put one in anyway, you might get away with disabling the option completely. If possible, of course --- you actually seem to be saying that it's not. ObLang: How is that for a focussing circumlocution, the one that I used in the first sentence of this mail? And how about the one I just used? (Watch out if you reply to this, the header is munged). Lars Mathiesen (U of Copenhagen CS Dep) <thorinn@...> (Humour NOT marked)
