I've updated the help file to make it clear that the intent is to send the reply back to the person to sent the message to you, which means that Resent-From takes precedence over From. That's what I always intended the help information to mean. > Then, when I do reply all, why can't I exclude and address that >doesn't have a blank delimited word in it? Any address can be excluded. Even if there are no words outside of the userid@nodename, you can exclude addresses by excluding the userid or nodename. The new version will make this easier by allowing you to select one from a pop-up scrollable list of addressees. Richard
