I don't have a problem changing the Reply-To: to the list. I usually do a Reply-all which replies to the poster and the list. Sometimes I then remove the poster from the reply or sometimes I remove the list from the reply, but usually I leave both (reason being in case the list is slow, the poster gets a direct reply immediately). So I'm used to checking the To/Cc already and if it'll stop some of the spam to catch it early I'm for it - either swap the To and Cc or make the list the Reply-To or whatever works best for everyone. > This message sent in part because I want to see if I can get this > mystery bounce Rob is talking about =) -- ,-/- __ _ _ $Bill Luebkert Mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (_/ / ) // // DBE Collectibles Mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] / ) /--< o // // Castle of Medieval Myth & Magic http://www.todbe.com/ -/-' /___/_<_</_</_ http://dbecoll.tripod.com/ (My Perl/Lakers stuff) _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
