Your settings are pretty much the best you can do. The explicit Reply-To: will override the From: as the reply address, but reply-all will generally include the To: which is the announce list, and may even, depending on the mail client, include the From: >If I can't stop the reply-to-all from going back to "announce", is there any >way to set up "announce" so it recognizes these replies and automatically >discards them? (It will not work to just reject emails from list members, >since all of them are authorized to send messages to the list.) Yes. On the announce list, set up a Privacy options... -> Spam filters -> header_filter_rules rule with an action of Discard and the following regexp ^(To:|Cc:).*[ <]talk@my\.group([, >]|$) This will match any To: or Cc: header containing the [email protected] address and will thus discard any post received by the announce list that was also addressed to the talk list. -- Mark Sapiro <[email protected]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
