You  might want to check your spam folder for the original posting. 
I check my SPAM daily, nothing there. I can only assume my PC has  finally 
got some tastes and just decided that ODB's mail wasn't worth receiving  any 
more. And i like this reasoning since it takes an act of Congress to get 
ODB  to return emails. :-)

No, you  shouldn't get a dup if someone hits "reply-all" - the mail system 
should see  that you already got a copy and disable sending another one to 
your email.  
Good to hear. But would be nice for the extra  traffic.

As I  said, it's a change in response to the recent DMARC enforcement 
change that  Yahoo, AOL and a few other providers did that broke many email 
lists. On my  higher traffic lists, I had a number of people that were constantly 
being  bounced off the list because of DMARC violations from Yahoo (mostly) 
and when  I moved to the new server, I set it up this way to prevent that 
from  happening. Basically, Yahoo, et al, saw that the "from" address had 
been  changed (like most email lists do) and bounced that mail as possible 
SPAM. So,  I don't change the from, instead I add a "cc" with the mail list 
posting  address.
Not a techie guy in the least. Didn't hear about the changes. And  wasn't 
sure just how recent "recent" really was. To some recent is a few weeks.  To 
others, recent is a matter of years. :-)

And the email was NOT sent to Leland only - it had a CC of  the mail list, 
because he hit reply-all. Here is a copy of the  headers:
Yep, i see that now. But i sent you my screen cap showing what i  saw. The 
board cant take screen caps i don't think. But now i see the CC when i  
bounce through the emails. Just a strange one that when i opened up Steve's  
email first the CC line wasn't there. And I didn't hit the "details Internet"  
link at all. But I will just chalk it up to AOL and their infinite wisdom of 
 recent decisions. 
 
In the end, glad you was avail and around to have the time to  explain it 
to a ignorant person. 
Now back to our regularly scheduled SD programming.
