Normally I suggest spamassassin, but the only false positives I've seen in the last six months have all been posts to [EMAIL PROTECTED] :\ > At least for me this creates the problem that when I resond to an > email on this list (doing a 'respond all') my mailer only uses the > addresses from the Reply-To: and the Cc: fields. Which mailer do you use? Mutt, KMail and Evolution (the former is my primary, the latter my secondary, mail client) all deal with this situation perfectly. I also hope like hell Mailman isn't munging Reply-To, because that's just *wrong*. > If the original author hasn't added himself to Cc: and is not > on the list he will not get the reply unless I add it by hand > - which I often forget. > I don't know if any of this can be fixed in mailman but I'm > sure it could be fixed by some mail pre- and post-processing. Umm, it's an MUA thing. The list manager is *not* to dictate to the MUA what to do - group reply should send to all of From, To and Cc, excluding yourself. In Mutt, the list of your addresses is maintained by 'set alternates <regexp>'. > If we can agree that we want something like this and on what > we want we can probably find a volunteer who'd hack this for > us. I think you've come up with the wrong solution to the wrong problem, honestly; what mailer do you use? -- Daniel Stone <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.kde.org - http://www.debian.org - http://www.xwin.org "Configurability is always the best choice when it's pretty simple to implement" -- Havoc Pennington, gnome-list
