First, let's point out that the proper syntax (1) requires commas between addressees and (2) requires host names on each addressee. Thus, the example should be: To: foo: user1@dom.one, user2@some.dom, user3@dom.xxx ; Having said that, what do you mean by ``get mail groups to work''? What do you believe is supposed to happen? What I believe should happen is that mail to the above list would be delivered to the three addressees ``user1@dom.one'', ``user2@some.dom'', and ``user3@dom.xxx''. And, yes, the addresses are supposed to stay intact in the actual message header text, though I suppose they wouldn't have to if you wanted your MUA to remove them. Craig
