A little more clarification may be in order. The From: line will always show the originator of the message, or to be more a little more specific, the address/person from which it was posted to the list. Now the Reply-To= header field allows you to adjust the Reply-to: line in the header of mail going out to your list members. If you code the first parameter as Sender, you can think of that as being the same as the From: line. If you code the first parameter as List, then the Reply-to: line will show your list's address. This does depend on the coding of the second parameter however. If you code the second parameter as Respect, then, if a Reply-To: line exists, LISTSERV respects that and leaves it unchanged else if there is no Reply-to: line, then LISTSERV will include a Reply-to: line coded as per the conditions of the first parameter you selected (Sender or List). If you chose Ignore as the second parameter of Reply-to= then LISTSERV will ignore whatever exists (or doesn't exist) on the Reply-to: line and will code the Reply-to: as per the conditions of the first parameter (Sender or List). I hope this makes Reply-to= a little clearer. Larry __________________________________________________ [log in to unmask] Lawrence B. York Support Engineer, L-Soft international, Inc.
