It means that when somebody knows the "r"eply doesn't work on linux-il and is always used to add the CC: back to the list himself, he can accidentally do that even on messages that just appear to have come from the list (because of the people involved) but infact haven't. I'm not saying that's what happened in this case, but it's a possibility. I use "group reply" instead of an explicit CC:, but not everyone does! See also your (Ira) own complaints that people take messages he sent to iglu.org.il and respond to them in linux.org.il. See - when people complain that Reply-To: causes embarrassing mistakes, they forget that such things also happen without it. This guy (may have) accidentally replied on the list. I once got legal threats for having used "group reply" (the jobinfo incident). Now, let's drop this issue - it has barely been a month since we last argued it :( And Shachar - this time it's not my fault we're arguing this :) -- Nadav Har'El | Tuesday, Feb 18 2003, 16 Adar I 5763 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |----------------------------------------- Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |What did the Buddhist say to the hot dog http://nadav.harel.org.il |vendor?
