Just wanted to clarify the virus-attachment and <Reply-To> issues with the Technet list. 

First of all, Technet does not allow for any attachments to be sent with the posts. This is done to prevent viruses (which are almost always sent as attachments) from inadvertently finding their way to the list. Occasionally a virus-generated e-mail will find it's way to the list (because a subscriber has been infected and the virus is sending out e-mail to addresses in the address book, including Technet), but the offending virus attachment is stripped out by the Listserv. 

As far as the Reply-To field, when you receive a post,  it points back to Technet as the default address, previously, it defaulted back to the sender.  If you wish to reply back to the poster off-line, then you must Reply-to-ALL Recipients, (which will add both Technet and the Sender) then strip the [log in to unmask] from the Reply to field. Or you may Reply and manually substitute the Sender's name for Technet. 

Hope this helps.
