This list is following the rules set out in RFC 2369, so it sets a List-ID header, which, in sane mail clients, causes a "Reply to List" option to become available when replying. This RFC is from 1998, so it's not like it has just been introduced yesterday and mail client software coders didn't have enough time to support this feature. Mangling the Reply-To header (which may have been set intentionally by the original sender) with list software is bad form. E.g. if you want to post to the list, but want to set the Reply-To to another list or to your E-Mail address, so replies don't hit the list, this would be overwritten, pointing at the list again. This is confusing both for a sender that doesn't expect it, and for recipients that expect their reply to reach your inbox instead of the list when intentionally selecting "reply" instead of "reply to list". We're using manually set Reply-To headers as a replacement for "Follow-Up-To" (a header only available on newsgroups), when crossposting announcements across multiple X2Go lists, but wish to channel the ensuing discussion to only one of the lists. So having the list server set to override this would be bad. And I think I also used it with a Reply-To set to my personal inbox for the X2Go: The Gathering registration E-Mails. At least it makes sense for these - people probably don't want to post their personal details to the list when they want to sign up for the event. TL;DR: Please complain to the manufacturer of your E-Mail client, or switch to a different E-Mail client, if it can't handle list replies the way it should. -Stefan -- BAUR-ITCS UG (haftungsbeschränkt) Geschäftsführer: Stefan Baur Eichenäckerweg 10, 89081 Ulm | Registergericht Ulm, HRB 724364 Fon/Fax 0731 40 34 66-36/-35 | USt-IdNr.: DE268653243 _______________________________________________ x2go-user mailing list x2go-user@lists.x2go.org https://lists.x2go.org/listinfo/x2go-user
