[asterisk-users] Mail list settings?

[Don Kelly]

I get direct replies when people reply to my posts. I thought that was just
'cause they wanted to make sure I saw their replies!

My 2c...

Looking back over recent e-mails, it looks to me like Bryant just has a
reply-to header on his outbound e-mail's with his e-mail in there. The
mailing list is simply allowing his address to remain in the 'reply-to'
header (while adding the list's address too).

I've noticed some others do this too (Chui Kingh Man) is an example, but
there are others.

So is this a case of the mailing list no longer stripping 'reply-to' headers
before adding it's own, or is this simply a case of a few users setting
reply-to when most don't, and those users getting replies directly as well
as to the list (as one would expect)?

Ie, unless I'm mistaken, it all looks to be operating normally.

But I'd be happy to be proven wrong ;)
