Re: [msvc] Ping Check

Title: Message
Well, there's still a problem related to a simple 'Reply'. The email headers reference an internal domain instead of "BeginThread.com". Some of the list headers are correct and others are not. I do not know if this originates from the mailman list software or the outgoing MTA gateway. If the MTA is using Postfix or Sendmail, it needs to know that BeginThread.com is a valid alias else this kind of thing happens. Regardless, here's the headers from this email I'm replying to for your edification (or piping to /dev/null (not him, the original great bit-bucket in the sky)).

Note that the "ReturnPath", "From", "To", "Reply-To", "List-Archive", "Sender" and "Errors-To" all reference the internal domain. Funny that the other List-specific headers are correct or, at least, include "BeginThread.com" (the List-Id looks a bit suspect but I'm not familiar enough with that to know for sure).
 
So, at least as far as I'm concerned, I cannot post a reply without replacing the "To" unless I want it to go "Sproing!"
Yeah, real weird.  Here's the headers I got on the same message:

Same message, different reply-to.  Wonder if maybe that doesn't get changed for everyone off-system.  But then again, others haven't had any problems (that I know of) sending email to the list...
 
At any rate I'm hard-setting the reply-to.  We'll see how it works on this message (check the headers).
 
My apologies to Dee for jumping to conclusions.  Thanks for your patience with my haste.
