Roselle, The setting for me is already "Yes" for: "Avoid duplicate copies of messages?"
I received a message addressed directly to me and addressed to the list as recently as December 11, 2003. Today is December 17, 2003. Even though your suggested change was already in effect, I clicked on submit. Do you think this will make it stick this time? This feature, assuming that it works, will be a big help.

Laura, Jerry and others who are receiving duplicates of list messages because of their Reply-To header: First, may I apologize to Laura. I had another memory lapse and had thought that I mentioned this to you off-list, <grin>. Kid, why didn't you complain about this earlier? Oh well... Do you guys see the link at the bottom of every message from the list? It's for checking the list archives, so it says, but also for configuring your membership settings. 1) Go to http://list.pulsedata.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote. Press SPACE with dots 4-5-6 (READ with B) to move the cursor to the bottom of the web page. 2) Press SPACE with dots 1-3 (SHIFT with TAB) twice to get to a text input field. Next to it are words that in effect say you must enter your subscription e-mail address there so that you can unsubscribe or change membership settings or get a password reminder. Type in your e-mail address (the one subscribed to the list) in computer Braille. 3) Press SPACE with dots 4-6 (TAB) to move to the "Unsubscribe or Edit Options" button. Hit ENTER. Don't panic, you will not be unsubscribed. 4) The next page loaded will ask you to log in. With the old BN list, you can do that without a password. I couldn't do it here so I clicked on the Remind Me button, that's located after the Log-In button. A password will be sent to your e-mail address. 5) Check your mail for that password reminder e-mail, repeat steps 1 through 3, and use that password to log in. On the page loaded where you previously clicked on the Remind Me button, there is a text input field for the password and a Log-In button as mentioned in step 4. 6) If you have successfully logged in, you should be on the membership settings configuration page. For BrailleNote users, use your Braille display to go through the options because speech doesn't read everything and you can get confused with what checkboxes are for. For VoiceNote users, make sure to read what the checkbox is for before checking or unchecking it, using the Reading commands. 6) You can change your password on this page; you'll find the edit fields for old and new passwords somewhere in the middle. There are other options you might want to look at and configure. Note that some options cannot be changed like the language (it's set to English) and the topics for messages you wish to receive (no topics are defined). 7) Towards the bottom of the page, the second to the last option says, "Avoid duplicate copies of messages? When you are listed explicitly in the To: or Cc: headers of a list message, you can opt to not receive another copy from the mailing list. Select Yes to avoid receiving copies from the mailing list; select No to receive copies." As instructed, select yes. Continue moving through the remaining settings until you reach the "Submit changes" button which you must activate by hitting ENTER. HTH, Roselle >----- QUOTED MESSAGE ----- >Sent by: "Laura Wolk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Hi Jerry >Do you have a reply-to address set in your email program? If you do, then that's why this is happening. For some reason this seems to happen with this list. It happens to me since I have a reply-to address set.
