Right.

Right (except that I replaced here my friend's real address with "xxx").

Yes, I share your opinion.

Difficult question. I did not asked everyone separately.

I did something similar even before creating my list "@klasa".
I created a list of two addresses (my two mail accounts):

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

and sent a test message. I received both copies without problems,
with "@mht2" (the list name) in the "To:" field.

It seems that in order to fix this problem, Arachne would have to
handle @lists differently: internally replace the "To: @list" field
with "To: addr1,addr2,addr3..." (or "Bcc: addr1,...").

Greetings,

Michal
