There does not appear to be any universal support for the "Mail-Followup-To:" header. There was a draft for it: http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-drums-mail-followup-to-00.txt however, as far as I know, it was never adopted. RFC 2822 does not mention it either. > IMNSHO, it's not up to the mailing list admins to dictate where > replies to my posts should go.

Please do not ignore the Reply-To header. __________________________________________________________________ It's always a long day; 86400 doesn't fit into a short. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
