   No.  This message that I'm responding to is the third message that you 
yourself have sent me to both the list as well as directly since the 
switchover.  Jay also sent me one on the RC helecopter thread.  I don't think 
any of those were intentional -- just has to do with the Reply-To: header.

   Except what that will do is have Mailman not send the copy from the list so 
that only the private copy is received; that breaks List-Id header filtering 
rules.  That's a broken work-around for the whatever is causing the Reply-To: 
header to have multiple entries, which I suspect is being added by Mailman.
