A number of our Listserv users are using Outlook Express and Netscape
Messenger with their e-mail systems.  They would like to press the
"Reply to Author" button and be able to reply just to the author of the
message instead of replying to the entire list.  Right now, when they
use the "Reply to Author" button, their replies still go to the entire
list.  The list is setup with Reply-To=List,Respect.  I understand that
we can setup the list with Reply-To=Sender so that replies only go to
the original sender.  However, our users would like to leave the list
with Reply-To=List,Respect and use the "Reply to Author" button when
they want to reply only to the sender.  I have already contacted L-Soft
support and they suspected a bug in Outlook Express and Netscape
Messenger, since, according to them, the client should be using the
"From:" field, not the "Sender:" or "Reply-To:" fields when the user
presses the "Reply to Author" button.  However, I am using Outlook with
Microsoft Exchange and have the same problem.

Any advise on this problem would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
