Schuyler,

That wasn't my choice, I was instructed to set it up that way as that's how it
was setup when Rob S. hosted it on Internexxus way back when. I have always
preferred a Reply-to: list address header and that's how our other lists are
set up. There are list members who would raise Cain if we changed the status
quo now. I have no problem teaching old dogs new tricks, the same doesn't
seem to apply to human beans! Paul T. is the official list owner, I have to
pass the buck on this one. I'm just the lackey who does as he's told.

I hate getting two and sometimes three duplicate replies to not only my own
posts, but to any that are written by some list members who have broken
mailers that INSIST on injecting erielack-owner@ into the list of recipients
for some totally incomprehensible reason. If it had been up to me, we would
have had a Reply-to: long ago.

Henry
