I would not have expected this. This looks wrong. If there is a Reply-To header which has a different address than the TO header it should be used and *not* the information in the TO header. BTW, there is no strange name appended, it is two addresses. Since they are, IMO, not correctly divided (by a comma or semicolon) you may be lucky in that only one is used. > If a press reply to all I get: > to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Again, would you expect this. No, I won't, but I might be wrong here. AFAIUI, if there is a Reply-To header with a different address only that one should be used. That makes much more sense than one would see at first. Just think of an auto-responder to which you *can* reply, only not to it's own address but another one. Which would have been put into the Reply-To header. Regardless of what the RFC's may state - I am not a programmer, so don't know them by heart - the behaviour I described above seems to me the only sensible one.
