Rony, thank you for catching the fact that my message only went to you,
and thank you for forwarding it on to the entire list.
*Especially since it was supposed to go to the entire group (
oorexx-devel@lists.sourceforge.net )*
I wanted those that have been working on release 5.0's program and
documentation "systems" to know that they _ARE_ appreciated.

I use Thunderbird as my email client [**/*LINUX 68.4.1 (64-bit*) /], and
it seems that the developers have made a change as to what the "REPLY"
button uses as an address.
Furthermore, Thunderbird sometimes displays a *"REPLY"* _and_ a *"REPLY
TO LIST"* button, _and at other times_ it only displays a *"REPLY"* button.
I have checked several times now, and on the message that I used as a
base for my reply, only a "REPLY" button is displayed.
The resulting "to" address in my reply is your direct email address,
rather then the expected address of /oorexx-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/
especially since the message headers in your message have a very clearly
defined header of:
/Reply-To: Open Object Rexx Developer Mailing List//
// <oorexx-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>/
I am unable to determine how Thunderbird decides what to use when only a
"REPLY" button is displayed.
(Your message had both _Reply-TO:_ and _From:_ headers, all correctly
formatted ---
nor was I able to determine why ThunderBird does not always display
_both_ buttons when a "list" message is being displayed.
If only a "REPLY" button is displayed, it sometimes uses the LIST
address, and sometimes it uses the message originator's email address.
I have examined the message headers on various reply's and I have not
yet found a pattern to explain the differences in operation.

Bill,
thank you for your suggestion, will incorporate it immediately.
BUT: you only sent your answer to me personally not to the list for
which it was probably meant for!
Cheers
