I had noticed the same - but I do not think this is a setting which PM can change, only the original MailSword user.
If I understand the cycle correctly, what happens is that somebody (A) writes to the list and the list server sends out that message to all users, including the MailSword user (B) and then, as the message poster name (A) shows up as the FROM, the MailSword user's software (B) will 'bounce' the message from the list server to the original FROM person (A) and thus you get only your own postings to the list back with the request to send that code. ---marlyse ------------ former message(s) quotes: ------------- >Jean Michel > >Thank you. > >It seems that something is configured strangely on the list.
