Yes, that's exactly what I'm doing. It drives me bonkers when I get personal emails that are just copies of what I've already read on the list. I read debian-user through gmane, too, so procmail doesn't help (before anyone brings up that old point). It doesn't bother me if no one gets the reply; it just bothers me when I do =) And anyway, Alvin, I don't have your level of faith that the folks in question would notice a bogus/odd reply-to. -- monique Ask smart questions, get good answers: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
