Yes, but as I said, it's "In-Reply-To:", not "Reply-To:". Mine is too left blank, however when users reply my e-mails on this list I presume that they get my name in it too, in either CC or To. I don't have this problem on any other mailing list though, so it's pure Mandrake. Maybe they should filter out that line or something... just an idea. It seems to me that many more messages have the "In-Rely-To", but when this comes AFTER the inserted "Reply-To" (by the mailing list) the problems arise, however when inserted before, it seems to work flawlesly. Beats me as to what factors determine where the "Reply-To" header get's added though, but it seems that the mail programs look at the last of the 2, no matter what the order is. I may be wrong here, but it seems to match in the several I have just looked at now. Greetings Ralph -- Homepage: http://tuxpower.f2g.net/
