Actually, that's something different. My reply template directs the reply to the list, rather than to the sender, so that I don't have to change the destination address for every post (I never send replies to list messages to the original poster, since that creates a lot of overhead for the original poster and a lot of duplicated text for the reply). The "reply-to" is set by my e-mail program to ensure that replies to my posts go to the list by default (of course, a sender can change that address). I do this because I keep list discussions separate from private e-mail; private replies that are also copied to the list simply go into my bitbucket and waste bandwidth by duplicating a message (most people reply with "reply all" which always sends two messages). If a reply is sent _only_ to me, that's different, and it should be routed normally to me by my filters. -- Anthony
