The personal address I use for this list doesn't get used for any other purpose. The account is configured with "Reply to [email protected]" so that replies don't come to that personal address. I do this to ensure that all relevant messages appear in their threads. Any mail for that personal address goes in the bit bucket. I have to say that even though I've been doing this pretty much since I started posting to this list, this is the first time anyone has mentioned double headers. Do the double headers actually matter? Do replies to my messages appear in other people's Inboxes twice because of the double headers? Or is it just aesthetic? -- Harold Fuchs London, England Please reply *only* to [email protected]
