Chris,
Whew! Thanks for that unequivocal reply.
There's nothing worse (in the world of mailing lists) that such a hideous
sop to brain-dead mailers.
This makes me suspect that we're about due for the counterpart to the
request for a [LIST-NAME] "Subject:" tag: having "Reply-To:" set by the
list server.
Perhaps that one should be put to rest, right away, too?
