Thanks for the clarification. I see what you're saying now. You threw me a bit of a high-and-inside curve ball with the assertion that this solution "abides by the RFC [2822]", to wit:
If *my* adding a Reply-To (to the list) to incoming mail doesn't violate the RFC, how is it that list server doing the same thing _does_ violate the RFC?
Because the only affected publically (note: pubically) is that which you respond and you become the author with the right to add the 'Reply-To:' header. None of the other postings are seen by anyone but you. What you do on your box is your business and does not affect the rest of the world/list.
I'm not asking you to 'explain your way out of this contradiction' or anything like that.
No, it sure doesn't appear that way, expecially since there is no "contradiction".
I don't put myself in the "correct" camp of the issue (I'm much more an advocate of the sensible... even more of universal congruity).
Now you are *re*-expressing your opinion. You cannot see the logic. The rest is rant and snipped. -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2
