Like I've said about 15 times now, I'm on 12-13 mailing lists or so. All but about 3 operate just as this one does.

This list DOES have the capability to be configured with the mailing list address as the Reply-to list by default...but there are quite a few people who like this and agree that a mailing list works better configured as such.

If you disagree, try replying to JUST the sender via those other email addresses. Now that's a PITA.

I've offered Steve about 10 different solutions to his problem...but he still thinks responding to messages via the Yahoogroups interface is the best way to go.
