Re: List "Reply-To" Function

2001-04-07 by mate_stubb@yahoo.com

Look, all you technology challenged folks, it's really very simple...

1. Change your account settings so that you do not get any list 
email. I don't want network people at work seeing my motm email 
traffic anyway.

2. Read the list from the website. It's at:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/motm, in case you don't know.

3. Remember that when you post a reply from the website, it goes to 
the entire list.

4. If you want to reply privately, fire up your email client, paste 
in some reply text, and you will be 100% aware that you are sending 
private mail, because you'll have to manually put in the sender 
address.

Moe, who has never made a mistake since adopting this technique
