One way to avoid cascading auto-mail meltdowns is to change the list server so it does not replace the "Reply-To" address with the list name address. Thus, anyone that selects "reply" to an email will send the reply back to the original sender. "reply all" will send the reply to the original sender and the list. It seems that many companies have now instituted anti-virus filters that automatically generate a message back to the "Reply-To" address when they receive a virus.
Can this list setup be changed to this mode?
Thanks, Chip
