Hi, Mark.
"Have you tried first_strip_reply_to = Yes?"
Yes. But what it also does in most cases is to strip the poster's
address, which is not what I want.

"Is this a distribution package Mailman (if so, which one)?"
Ubuntu.

I'll ask him to bcc me & send it along. I'm going to test to see if I
can duplicate this w/other reply-to: settings.
