However on another mailing list where I'm a member I get two copies of messages when people do 'Reply to all' simply because I have a Reply-To: of my own set. (I have Reply-To: set so that if people want to send me a personal reply it gets to a mailbox I will read. If you reply to my From: address the message will end up in a catch-all, low-priority, probably junk mailbox).
This is a perpetual problem, if people all used the same MUA and (assuming it has the capability) all used the 'reply to list' command to reply to the list everything would be wonderful! :-) -- Chris Green ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) "Never ascribe to malice, that which can be explained by incompetence." ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs/FAQ.html
