How about (d) poster AND list? That is, insert/override a reply-to: header containing both the list name, and the original reply-to (if present, else From: address). For extra credit, omit the original poster if they are a list member. This would be very useful for a number of lists I maintain, where 90% of the traffic is among the list members (hence having a simple reply go to the list), yet a few messages come in from the outside world (hence including the original poster's address). I'm using mailman 2.1.4 on GNU/Linux. Thanks, karl@freefriends.org ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Message: Logged In: YES user_id=33248 I'm trying to help my users avoid a fairly common mistake, not engage in arguments about standards. Fine, Reply-to: list, poster may not work for the population of some lists. So those lists won't enable it. Meanwhile, it will help some people and lists, and there's no other way to accomplish the behavior (that I know of). It's trivial to add and a tiny change in the user interface. I am not asking for per-user control of this, which is what the FAQ entry you cited mostly discusses. Obviously some compromise has already been made with the "reply-to considered harmful" stance. (For which I am very thankful, because it is very useful.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Brad Knowles (shub) Date: 2004-11-25 15:26 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=18417 I don't think this is possible. "Reply-to:" goes back to one address, not two. The action of having multiple "Reply-to:" headers is also undefined, and some clients may work the way you want, while others may work in ways you do not. Pretty much everything to do with "Reply-to:" is really a client problem, and needs to be solved there. See <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/ faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq03.048.htp> for details. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: URA Hiroshi (ura) Date: 2004-05-10 10:44 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1007264 I uploaded the patch by different method. see following URL: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=951167&group_id=103&atid=300103 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350103&aid=923122&group_id=103
