Ah, I did not assume that the mailing list server is different from the originating server. For me, the question *only* has sense when it is the same server. If they are different servers, then there is no problem at all. The *only* job of mailing list software is to resend the mail it receives to list members. It should completely ignore recipients in "To:" or "Cc:" headers, they are of no interest for a mailing list and they have already been taken care of by the originating server, as you indicated. In case of two different servers, you are right of course. -- Regards, Jaroslaw Rafa r...@rafa.eu.org -- "In a million years, when kids go to school, they're gonna know: once there was a Hushpuppy, and she lived with her daddy in the Bathtub." _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
