Hey, you're the one complaining about the duplicates. If you don't want to run a proper MUA, and you want to correct it in your mail server, follow the instructions in the pervious post. Otherwise, quit your complaining, because no one is going to change all the MUA's, mail servers, and mailing list software in the world to be different than it is, just to make you not need to type in list addresses on intentional posts, to avoid "accidently" posting private email to mailing lists. > > "Outlook", as opposed to "Outlook Express". > > Two different products, despite the names.

No one asked you to "compete and conquer", only to appologize for something you claimed as a mistake, which hardly anyone actually believes was a mistake, but would be willing to treat it as such, as a polite fiction, were you to acknowledge that your error was in fact an error. > > Therefore the rest of us should consider that > > you will not honor a confidence, before sending > > you private email. > > The rest of you should assume that I do not want any private e-mail > concerning this public discussion.
