Incidentally, procmail might be able to offer a fix on the recipient's side of this. How about a recipie to filter list mail, run it through formail, add a "Reply-to:" header (appropriate to the list), and dump the mail to an appropriate folder. This would give those of us with real mailers a "your problem, your answer" option for responding to this question. Peace. -- Karsten M.
