>what are the reply-to options and what does each mean; specifically >reply-to= user? reply-to= sender This makes any reply-to header generated by listserv for a given list go back to the person who originally sent the message. reply-to= list This makes any reply-to header generated by listserv for a given list go back to the list. reply-to= user@address This makes any reply-to header generated by listserv for a given list go to a specific person at a specific address. Additionally, you can add either ,respect respect what the reply-to header generated by a particular message to the list says, regardless of the previous part of the reply-to keyword ,ignore ignore any reply-to headers in any e-mail message sent to a list. This is particularly useful on a list where people are either incapable or unknowledgeable about how to make sure they know where their reply is going I think I got them all. >does that mean that any reply will go to the user as oppossed to the >entire list? I think what you want is reply-to= sender Keep in mind that all of this assumes, (aside from reply-to=list, ignore) that the various e-mail programs that your users are using are capable of interpreting and dealing with the reply-to header in e-mail messages. For example, if you sent me a message with a different reply-to header from where the message was sent from, unless I happened to notice it, which I rarely do, I would send back the message to the sender, primarily because, while my e-mail program seems to recognize that a reply-to header exists, it seems to otherwise ignore it. >Thanks. > >--Brian Glenn Alperin
