   Ok.  Thanks very much, Sean.  I think you fixed it.
   Your reply came to me directly again also, but that's only because you 
replied to a previous message that hadn't been Reply-To munged yet.  :-P  
Your message to the list looks Reply-To munged as expected.

   Unfortunately I don't think there was a good alternative to Reply-To 
munging.  Mailers are supposed to reply to all addresses in the Reply-To 
header, even when choosing a normal Reply.  That's the correct behavior as 
per RFC822, section 4.4.4.  [The online Mailman docs on Reply-To munging has 
a link that makes reference to the RFC.]

   Hope to see you guys on Wednesday.
