If I hit reply to on this message, it is addressed to you. If I hit Rely-to on a
message from the Lazarus mailing list it may go to this list or not.
This is a mailing list parameter that has been set by the owner of the list. It
allow one to reply to the sender of the message first. Why this is setup by the
list owner is beyond me. I have seen a number of other list set this way also and
it is very confusing to reply to list messages.
I, along with the rest of the world, are not going to change how we have our email
clients setup to satisfy this. Many email providers, mine included, require the
reply to address to match the from address as a form of spam protection, otherwise
the emails are rejected at the SMTP server.
You decision to not answer someone based upon how they have their email clients
setup is rather childish.

Interesting reply Vincent, but it doesn't make a lot of sense!!
I asked you on 18 februari to remove your reply to header. I find this annoying,
because if I press the 'reply to' in my email client, the email doesn't go to
the list, but to you personally.
I have decided not to answer people who do is, because they make it harder for
me to answer to the list.
This time I prepared a reply, but before sending I noticed that the message
still went to your personal email address instead of the list. I remembered I
had asked you to remove the reply to header from mails to the mailing list, so I
decided to remove the prepared answer instead of going to the hassle of removing
your name from the To-Field adding the Lazarus list as recipient.
With kind regards,
Vincent
