When I respond to a message on the list I use "reply" option of the mail
program. On this list it appears to go to the originator of the message.
I have not noticed this on other lists that I respond on. When I notice
it, I will cut and paste. I am not a microsoft fan and have used Eudora
for years as a mail client. I understand that this is an option of the
list owner. Perhaps some mail clients work differently. Sorry for the
problem folks..
