I've configured a working email address in the "Reply-To:" field of my posting client. If you just use your client "Reply" button, and do not modify the resulting email address in any way, shape, or form, it should work. See my response to your later post, with the log entry of my test. P.S. If the spammers pick this up, I'll just have to change it. No big deal for me. But it is designed so that using the "Reply" button will do the job. It seems to work nicely for posters who manage to inadvertently hit the "Reply" button instead of the "Reply to Group" button. -- Norman ~Oh Lord, why have you come ~To Konnyu, with the Lion and the Drum
