Well, Greg - this list appears to set 'Reply-To:' to the list
address. It is a setting in the header. What is your's set to in
the header?
This is in the listownr.memo:
Reply-To= Sets a default for the "Reply-To:" field in the
header of list mail
and later in the same file:
**********************************************************************
* Reply-To= List | Sender | Both | <netaddress>,[ Respect | Ignore ] *
**********************************************************************
Indicates whether the "Reply-to:" tag supplied by the sender of the
mail file is to be preserved or discarded (if present), and, if
discarded or omitted, what should be placed in the new "Reply-to:"
generated by the server. The default value is "List,Respect".
Note that some mailing systems are unable to process a "Reply-To:"
field with multiple addresses correctly and may therefore
disregard the Reply-to= Both option and treat it as Reply-to= List.
The parameters operate as follows:
1st position:
List: Replies are directed to the list address.
Sender: Replies are directed to the original sender.
Both: Reply to both the original sender and to the
list (see note regarding this above)
<netaddress> Replies are directed to the specified internet
address
2nd position:
Respect: The original "Reply-to:" tag, if any, is kept. Note
that this means that the Reply-To: address
specified in the first position is ignored if a
Reply-To: tag exists in the original posting.
Ignore: The original "Reply-to:" tag, if any, is ignored
and discarded, and the value in the first position
is used instead.
