I think that's the crux of this thread ... you either reply to the person that sent it only -- or you reply to everyone; the list and the senders email address (which means the sender gets two copies). That means if you want to reply to just the list, you have to make a manual effort to delete everyone else's address. This behavior works in both Pine and Outlook (yes, I freq use Outlook for my email). My version of Pine (Pine 4.44 built Sun Sep 1 02:51:28 EDT 2002 on astest.test.redhat.com) does not have a reply-to-group option. IMO: this is not how a list should behave, and it's the only list that I subscribe to works this way. But if that's the way the 'experts' and list owners want this list to work, then fine, I'll put up with. But can I ask a favor that you cut us neophytes some slack when we screw up? -r Alright ... I'm done with this thread.
