Its worse than that: what about people who intentionally set the Reply To header on *non-mailing list* emails? E.g. if I'm about to go on holiday, I might reply to a work email: "Please send replies to f...@example.com" (which, of course, business email users don't read or pay attention to) and set the Reply To to ensure that replies go to Fred. -- Steve ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
