In this case, the subscriber probably doesn't even know he's got his "Reply-To" field set. However, 1. I don't want to screw up his system by asking him to change it; 2. I don't want to have to deal with other folks who may come in with their "Reply-To" fields also set that way. If he WERE doing a survey or something, it probably wouldn't be appropriate on my list anyway! ;-) btw...I don't feel so bad now about not knowing the "ignore" option--I can't find it in the listowner memo or the other files I've got. I obviously don't have enough instruction files! -- Ione -- Ione L.
