[Kenwood] "Reply To:" to where? (Was: new reflector software glitch?)

Fri, 11 Jan 2002 15:31:27 -0600

Jamie& the list -for some reason , I had to paste the lists address in the
To: line, otherwise this email would have gone to you alone.  I do not know
why Gary's email that he sent me last night that was on another email from
the list should have gone to the list and not just to the sender. Maybe it
will get figured out someday.
Thank You,
