Rumor has it that Jay West may have mentioned these words:
It seems that the duplicate posts fall into two
categories...
2) This one seems to be what is hitting a few people. I am not sure why
this is happening... but for some people when I get an email from them and
I hit "reply", the "to:" address shows their email address AND the
list.
So I'm actually responding to both places and that's why they get two
emails. At this point I'm not sure if my own laptop has started doing
something squirrely so that hitting reply picks up the list address AND
the senders address, or if it has something to do with the list software,
or if it has something to do with the senders setup. But anyways, it just
dawned on me that more than a few times when I've hit reply to a post
lately, I get the original posters address and the list address, both in
the "to" box. Odd. I'll watch for it to happen again.
I've seen that with a few addresses on the list -- I'm subbed to enough
lists that 1/2 do Reply-To munging, and 1/2 don't - so I [usually] remember
to always check the To: list and remove one of the addresses... but it
sounds like something odd set up in the individual users' MUAs - but I've
never bothered to check the headers myself.
Just a statistic, ;-)
