Hmm... Sounds like you are asking us to possibly honor someone's desire that no-one should see our replies to their statements about us. If I was to post a message saying that Bind has an "undocumented feature" in it such that if it receives a request for www.mickeyDs.com that all the traffic lights in the country turn green at once and that Paul Vixie purposely did this, you would honor my Reply-to: [email protected] ? I think not... :-) >2. I removed all individuals from the To: and Cc: headers, leaving > only the mailing lists. This keeps people from getting two copies > of the reply, since they are clearly ON the mailing list. I have always done this (unless I messed up :-), and find those who don't as annoying as you do... I will promise to never start (and have never have started) a thread about uDNS on nanog .
