Possible Mailman configuration problem on this list?

[William F. Acker WB2FLW +1-303-722-7209]

Hi all,

     I notice that when Luke replied to Rejean, Rejean got a copy, as well 
as the list.  It isn't very likely that Luke meant to do that.  So, using 
Pine, I hit R, was asked the usual question about including the text of 
the message being replied to, prompted whether I wanted to use the 
reply-to address rather than the From: address, I said yes.  Usually, that 
would be that, but I was then asked if I wanted to reply to all 
recipients.  Normally, I only get prompted for that if I say no to the 
previous prompt about using the reply-to address.

     What y'all think?

Hmm.
You're correct, that I didn't intentionally do that.  I just tested a bit,
and found that when choosing to use reply-to instead of from, I did not
get what you say you get.
I went ahead with that, and tthense came this message, with only the list
as the recipient.

I am using pine 4.58.

Hi Bill,

I am a pine user and was unable to replicate what you described.
When I replied "yes" to the reply-to question I was dropped right
into my editor.

So did I, though interestingly Chuck, check out the header snippet from 
your above message:

There-in lies the solution, me thinks.

You probably have a good point.  I am in the middle of a huge conversion so
I thought maybe it had something to do with me and forgot all about it.  I
notice that I am getting several double posts from this list.

Hi:

The reason why this happened is thatt Rejean's E-mail address is also in
the reply-to header of his messages, so Pine uses them both.  I had to
delete his address manually when replying to him right now.

I fixed it, I hope.  Does it still happen?

I went into outlook express account definitions and took out reply address.
I can hear the growling and snarling.  How dare a filthy little Windows user
use Outlook Express on this list.

I don't think it's a Mailman problem, but something to do with the headers 
generated by the offending mail client.  I can't be sure, as I don't have 
aa message to hand at the moment, but I suspect it might have something to 
do with the person putting their own Reply-To: header on their mail, and 
instead of replacing it, Mailman is just creating another one, but I don't 
see this problem for everyone, and on some mailing lists, the Reply-To 
header does not exist at all, which creates problems for me because I've 
got Pine set up to use the reply-to address and the nickname thereof to 
decide which folder to save stuff to; it's not a major deal because I do 
most of this by hand as I read a message, but it's still a pain to have to 
keep typing "speakup" instead of just hitting return.

Cheers.
