Bruce tells me I am now whitelisted, so I'll try again, but this time using 'reply to all' :
It seems to do the job for dealing with DMARC, but two comments: 1. For most posters on these lists, replies used to go to the list as a matter of course (and people who set Reply-To have always been a pain for breaking that : if we have to, we have to) and now by default replies will go to the poster, not to the list. I suspect people will start to reply to all. 2. The reply to the list is actually sent to the poster's name via the list (with the list name in the address). Seems odd. ĸen -- This email was written using 100% recycled letters. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-book FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
