How many people either send the same thing, thus wasting all of their time, or send nothing because they assume someone else did it. I think this is called a "discussion list," isn't it? Don't forget the annoying people who have their address in Reply-To all the time and thereby screw everyone up when they want to reply to the list only. I used to be one of them, but not anymore. > or the much more common "I'm conducting a poll on X; vote by emailing me > directly and I'll post the results in one week". That won't work anyway because at least about 5 people will start spamming the list with their opinions. There is no defense. I'm sure you understand that having the list address added to the Reply-To field does not stop people from replying to the sender (From address). For people who have different From and Reply-To, this new system works great. Mike
