SBUG!

This is getting rather dull!

Can you PLEASE consider (again) reconfiguration of the list such that
the From:, From, Originator: and Reply-To: headers all show the
address of the author of the article and only the Cc: header shows
progsoc@nospam.... This way, we only get junk in the list if people REALLY want
to put it here.

(If indeed Luke's inanities were made public as a result of him
not knowing how to drive his mailer, he and others would be unable to
accidentally post similar junk.)

This will become more of an issue as the intended readership of the
list grows. For those who don't know, most mailers provide at least
two reply options, one to reply to the author of the message and one to
reply to all who are reading. The current configuration of progsoc@nospam....
subverts this fairly common feature such that the user is forced
to type out the author's address in full if (s)he wishes to send a
private reply.

Comments invited from all readers please.
