Most email clients will act this way (i.e. Thunderbird, Pine, Outlook*) because the person that sent the email to the list is in the "From" field and I don't see the "Reply-To" field being set by the listserv. Some listservs will also rewrite the "From" so that even clients that ignore the "Reply-To" will reply to the list. It will then appear something like "From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of so-and-so". How does mutt know to reply to the email address in the "To" field and not the "From" field without user intervention? --David *I'm forced to use this at work :( -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
