OK, Maybe "Precedence: list" is also a valid implementation; I haven't looked in detail at the RFQs, etc. - I was just typing from memory. The basic method of operation is the same, though - the MLM marks the message as a mailing list message using the "Precedence" header, and the autoresponder interprets this header when deciding whether to respond. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
