It's a legitimate, defined keyword documented in the RFC on News messages. It simply means that if someone tries to followup to the article, the newsreader is supposed to automatically treat it as a "reply" command and use mail to the poster instead of posting the reply. Unfortunately, few (if any) newsreaders actually implement this, at present. Deven -- Deven T.
