Subject: Re: List "Reply-To" Function

Look, all you technology challenged folks, it's really very simple...

1. Change your account settings so that you do not get any list
email. I don't want network people at work seeing my motm email
traffic anyway.

2. Read the list from the website. It's at:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/motm, in case you don't know.

3. Remember that when you post a reply from the website, it goes to
the entire list.

4. If you want to reply privately, fire up your email client, paste
in some reply text, and you will be 100% aware that you are sending
private mail, because you'll have to manually put in the sender
address.

Moe, who has never made a mistake since adopting this technique
