Thomas, Yes you can with Rootsweb lists - it's the way their listserver software works. Mary, there are two choices - first is to omit your reply to address in the account details altogether, second is to set up a reply template in your address book to override your own reply to account settings for that list like this %REPLYTO="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" (which is what I do for my Rootsweb lists ;-) -- Cheers, Anne The Bat Email - Unofficial Support Forum: http://the-bat-forums.donzeigler.com Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hello Mary Bull, On or about Monday, January 20, 2003 at 14:12:32GMT -0600 (which was 3:12 PM in the tropics where I live) Mary Bull opined: 8< Snipped a bunch MB> Peter, this is a very nice list.

Just think, you can be the 'ambassador of proper netiquette' on that list and make a new crop of better informed users! ;-) Work with the moderator by stating the reasons why it is important (from an organizational standpoint) to conform to established protocols.
