So the question is why LISTSERV sends the note to the original list-adress
?? What are the headers of the *original* message ? If that one contains
the list-addres as originator all hell breaks loose. (uhh, broke loose ?)
But then again, the original message will have the list-address in the
Sender field. If LISTSERV prefers Sender: above From: to send 'sent to
moderator' notes to I would guess that Valdis' solution will be best.
