Are able and professional enough to provide you with detailed information about found bugs. An information 'the program hangs when I try to send mail' ain't very useful.

Re: how do I reply to more than one mail?
Hi Andrew, > Hmmm. I think maybe what Andy wants is some kind of automated-reply. You can > set up mail filters that do this. > > Am I right? No :-) What I want is forward a mail without changing any part of the mail not even the headers. What TheBats "redirect" does is close but it changes all the headers. Even the To: line. Maybe you wonder why I need this. Well, an example: I work in a small radio here in Peru and we have a general email address for requests, comments etc. So my wife - who gets all these mails - decides who is best to receive and process this mail and "bounces" it to that person. So far this works with the "redirect" feature, too. But if the recipient wants to see where this mail really came from, at which address it was directed or any other part that can be seen in the headers, he can't. Just the From and Reply-To line are still the same.

I think maybe what Andy wants is some kind of automated-reply. You can set up mail filters that do this. Am I right?
