Martin,
The answer is in the -Mailer- one uses, not in the Listserv ! The
Mail program used here (RiceMail), has an option for the 'Reply'
subcommand, ( Reply From ), which gets the address from the 'FROM' line
of the original posting, not the 'Reply To' line. Thus nothing needs to
be done to the List Header. I reply back to original posters all the time.
Regards,
Roger C.
