One of the problems had been that we only recognized "Reply-To:", while majordomo used "reply-to:" by default. I believe this has been corrected for all of the mail clients we support. (One NAPLPS mail client for DOS and Mac, P*Mail for Windows, and EMC, an offline client for Windows users.)
The worst current bug in Prodigy mail is for EMC (Email Connection) users. It
is being worked on, but currently, EMC adds a "From:" header, and so does a
gateway that the mail passes through. This causes problems: majordomo gets
very confused and actually uses the wrong address if the Prodigy user has a "NetName." The EMC developers are fixing this now.
