That's all normal, except that I'd expect there to be *no* Reply-To: header. Having a Reply-To: header that contains the same address as the From: address is a bit odd. Are you *sure* that's the case? > Google reveals that the list address should be in the 'Reply-to' > field of the original message, not the sender's address, No, absolutely not. That would trick *private* replies (when you just hit 'Reply') to go back to the public list! You don't want that! > in which case the 'Reply to list' option should be enabled > in the 'Message' menu, or CTRL-L would work to reply to the list. No, Ctrl-L should look at headers like List-Id: or List-Post:, and should work fine, regardless of whether the list has an abusive Reply-To: header. What happens when you hit Ctrl-L? Please read http://david.woodhou.se/reply-to-list.html though, and hopefully it'll make you think again about whether that's really what you want to do anyway. -- dwmw2 _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
