Normally, the list server sets the "reply-to" field to equal the list address for every post that is sent out. So you press reply to a post on LD and it is addressed back to the list instead of the person who posted it. However, if the original poster has the "reply-to" field set in their mail program, the list server lets that override and doesn't change it to the list address. So you press reply to that particular person's mail and it is addressed back to the poster and not the list. So when you see this happen, it is really because the person you are replying to has their mail program set to add the "reply-to" header. It is rare for somebody to do this, and usually there is no reason for them to do it. They may not even know, so you might try asking that person to change the settings on their mail program to not use "reply-to". kim At 10:04 AM 9/30/2001, Matthias Grob wrote: >Kim, > >It happens here sometimes (about 1 in 20 maybe, it just happened with >A.Willers) that "Reply" does not bring the LD adress, but the one of the >poster. >Its not a problem as long as we pay atention to it, but it may happen >that >someone thinks he posted but just answered personally... > >I this a problem of some setting in >- my Email soft? >- the senders Email soft? >- the LD server? >- a unlucky combination of all? >-- > > > ---> http://Matthias.Grob.org ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
