"unlike",right?

This is extremely interesting! I asked a similar question a while ago, viz.,
what information does a photon carry that conveys whether it sprang from a
positive or negative charge, and hence tells it whether to attract or repel a
charge of unlike or like sign. I got all the proper admonitions about trying to
derive a static field result with Feynman diagrams. But you seem to have an
insight I'm lacking. Please clarify, expand, explain.
