I've been using MajorDomo for internal mailing lists for many years with
few problems. But of late two changes have occurred that are causing me
some grief:
1) I decided to finally start using "resend" to benefit from some of its
features;
2) Company policy and practice has everyone using Microsoft Outlook as
their primary (or only) MUA.
While searching various message archives and the 'net in general I have
found lots of complaints about the different ways that Outlook
misbehaves (mostly sending things to the list owner at inappropriate
times), but no concise discussion of what, if anything, can be done to
fix that.
Perhaps that's because there isn't anything that can be done.
But I don't think taking no for an answer is good enough. If there
aren't any "magic incantations" to convince Outlook to behave properly,
perhaps there are changes that can be made to the way resend performs.
Or perhaps I need use procmail or similar to re-process mail sent to
list owners and do the right thing with it.
Since I doubt I'm the only one in this position, have my searches been
mis-directed and there is a good resource for getting Outlook to behave?
Or are there other measures I can take to get the desired result?
