True..very true. But this again boils down to Netiquette. Before I discovered a way to make this happen with procmail. I would take the time to change the To: field..a lot of people do not. They expect everything to be done for them. Clicking into the To: field in a GUI mailer and replacing the persons address w/ the suse list address isn't that hard and if it's in the address book of most mailers. Then one can type the first few letters and just tab. Netscape/Mozilla mail will attempt to get the address your typing from the first few letters. Mutt can be made to do this by pressing t then if you backspace over the address and hit the entry in the aliases file that is setup..such as mine which has suse-linue-e@suse.com aliased to sle..then it will put the correct address in the field. People simple don't care about doing the right thing..they want it done for them even if it's been stated that it won't happen..it's almost like saying.."If they won't do this then I won't do it either..nananana :P " I take no excuse for bad manners. This isn't directed at you..it's a general behavior I see. -----=====-----=====-----=====-----=====----- Ben Rosenberg mailto:ben@whack.org -----=====-----=====-----=====-----=====----- I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...
