Are the replies going directly to the senders of the messages, or are they going to the list and getting distributed? If they are going to the list and getting distributed, you can use the CONTENT_FILTER to catch them before they get distributed. (See the Wizard) If they are going to the senders, there's not much you can do other than set her subscription to NOMAIL or DIGEST. Subscribers should be encouraged to either remember to set their subscriptions to NOMAIL or DIGEST before going on vacation, or take the trouble to set up their OOO software to not reply to list mail. (Or not use OOO at all, but some of them are required by company policy to set it up). -- Francoise Becker There is only one LISTSERV(R) -- the product that launched the email list communication industry in 1986.
