Speaking of "Reply To:" fields--the "Reply To:" field for my list is set
to direct responses back to the list. So far, so good. However, one
subscriber (only one so far) must have his personal email set to insert
his own address in the "Reply To:" field. Therefore, when list members
reply to his posts they end up responding to his private address instead
of the list. Now, I know that they can just type in the list address (or
possibly hit "reply to all", depending on their mail system), but most
of them are pretty puter illiterate--and they're getting confused. Is
there any way to override the personal "Reply To:" field when the
message is posted to the list?
