Whilst I intend to agree with Joe on this with regards to netiquette, I do not mind doing it for a short time and possibly having to resend some emails to the list address as opposed to lanman. With the current slump in world IT budgets, courtesy 9/11, and the huge unemployment rate, I say lanman you keep your reply address as your email address, for a while anyway, just to keep your clients happy.
So, to make this easy on Joe, who has obviously become the List Nazi of the day, I will explain.
Istop explanation.......
Since I have about 250 clients who rely on me to stay in contact with them, this was a priority for me, at least until my DNS server settings were updated with the new static IP address that I rely on for business.
So whether or not you like it, that's the way it had to be. .....
I am sure he could circumvent this problem by using another email address for his email list or having his own email server with two email addresses. With 250 clients it should be affordable, but until he does find a solution or Mandrake forcibly changes his message reply to reflect the list he is replying to, I do not think it is too much for us as list members to put up with for a little while.
In short lanman your reply to inability does annoy me, I am pretty sure there is a workable solution to all parties concerned but i am willing to put up with it for commerce sake.
