I have no idea. Could it have anything to do with my mail software or is it
a Majordomo thing?
I know for a fact that in the configuration for my mailer I have a "From:"
and a "reply to:", naturally I've set them both to the same email address.
But surely, this can't mess up messages to Majordomo lists that bad?
The "Coollist" didn't seem to have this problem.
Any ideas what could be wrong here?

I see. I yet have to figure out how to understand bounces and what to do
with them.
By the way, each message from you (and several others) have been sent in
two copies (one for the list, one directly to me) -is this how a list
normally works?
I thought you were supposed to send to one or the other, so the person who
initially asked the question(s) won't get two copies. After all, everybody
on the list will get all messages.
That's why I am deliberately sending all messages to ONLY the list, unless
the reply has been sent directly to me only -in that case I reply directly
to that person. I'm a little confused.
