I tried this a while back and ran into problems sending/recieving email to/from tlug-lxSQFCZeNF4 at public.gmane.org, if I recall correctly.
Any ideas?
The problem is, if people don't notice, or don't have their mail client set up to override this, the responses to your post(s) will go directly to you instead of to the list. The people who *do* notice and/or have their client set up to override your reply-to, well, you get the idea. Your only hope, AFAIK, is that people will reply to your post with a cc to the list. Unless I'm *completely* misunderstanding you, which is a common thing for me, it's just not a Good Thing on mailing lists. I'm hoping that this response will not result in you making threats about coming to my house and doing me harm, which is what happened on another list when I questioned someone's use of this setting :-D -- JoeHill ++ ICQ # 280779813 Registered Linux user #282046 Homepage: www.orderinchaos.org +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "Reality is what you can get away with." -- Robert Anton Wilson -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.
