GMail team has just communicated me that Gmail does not currently support the functionality to create an empty Reply-to address. Paul Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

That might work if Paul only sent email to this list, and didn't have any friends ;) Paul, the problem is not just your responsibility. Persons replying to your posts can force a reply to the list, or to you. I replied to this post by hitting the 'L' key ('R' would reply only to you {lower case l's & r's}) in Kmail. However the 'reply to' is set, that forces a reply to the list. Other email clients have similar functions. If they don't... don't use 'em. -- Tom Brinkman Corpus Christi, Texas Proud to be an American Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Carroll, Thanks for telling me that. I have selected no reply-to address in my GMail configuration, but it still adds my own address. If I write none, empty or blank as reply-to address, it happens what you have just noticed. I have already reported this problem to GMail team.

[newbie] Conversion from text to a spreadsheet format
Dear All I have got dozens of text files (which are the output of a simulation program) containing tables of numbers. I would like to convert them into a format readable by a spreadsheet program (OpenOffice Calc, for instance), so that each number in the original text file can be transformed in a spreadsheet cell. Is there such a converter? Thanks in advance, Paul Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com Join the Club : http://www.mandrakeclub.com
