Hi Gene :) Antwort an: gene.heskett@xxxxxxxxxxx, For users of Fedora Core releases <fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx> "Antwort an:" is German from my Evolution and meand "reply to:". I guess you did set in your mail client the reply-to field explicitly. This may be because you like to get replies to your list postings not only over the list subscription but too as a reply to your mail address directly. That may be a reason. The list manager (mailman) on the Red Hat server sets the reply-to address automatically, and I think if there is already one set, then the Fedora list address is added. We see the same with people mailing with Gmail (through the web frontend). Sidenote: if your reply-to address does not differ your sender address, and given the reason I explained above (direct reply rather than list only) is not given, you do not need to set the reply-to in your mail client. Just leave it empty. > And verizon strikes again. My apologies Alexander. But I am > subscribed to this list and the list comes in fine.

I hope my message didn't appear blaming you Gene. It was just that after trying to give you some hints as an answer to your list posting, that I observed the message being queued as relay.verizon.net didn't take my mail. Thanks to Paul I now know that this is Verizon's policy as I am posting from Germany. I now will remember this issue in future cases and will have to remove your personal reply-to address when answering to list messages by you Gene. Not comfortable, but well, no big deal for me. on The other side, if you like I can give you a Gmail account invitation. Regards Alexander P.S. spam is a nowadays problem - we all know that very well, unfortunately. But closing the doors for complete countries simply breaks the medium. Maybe Verizon should note "Dear customer, your mail account is only for conversation inside the USA". -- Alexander Dalloz | Enger, Germany | GPG http://pgp.mit.edu 0xB366A773 legal statement: http://www.uni-x.org/legal.html Fedora Core 2 GNU/Linux on Athlon with kernel 2.6.10-1.770_FC2smp Serendipity 17:59:52 up 6 days, 15:56, load average: 0.53, 0.56, 0.42
