Stripping the Reply-To: fixes the immediate problem you were having, but it doesn't fix the underlying problem, and it is a bad idea in general. It is a bad idea in general because a user may send a post with a Reply-To: which is different than From: and which may be required for that user to receive a reply. For more on this, see for example http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html The underlying problem in your case appears to be that somehow in the processing that delivers mail from your incoming MTA to Mailman, a Reply-To: you header gets added to the message. The real solution is to figure out where and why this is happening and fix it there. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
