Hi Mikko!
I think you miss my point, I have the following email addresses into this box:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
.... (5 more)
I send an email to a majordomo but the primary email is set to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] as per my default hook.
But I may decide to use another problem and unless I have every possible
majordomo in send-hooks then there is no way to use multiple local addresses.
