I checked the headers of a message from Bob, and his e-mail program is set up to generate a Reply-to: header in his mail. The list is also set up to generate a Reply-To: header pointing back to the list. Evidently there's a weakness in the mailing list software so that it won't add the new header if one already exists. It may be fixable, but I'd have to dig into it a bit. Of course you should always check where your message is going before you hit "send," but I understand how easy it is to get tripped up. It's also a pain to have to cut and paste the proper address into the To: field. Add [email protected] to your address book and at least you'll not have to type it in. Hope that helps, Mike D.
