Well unfortunately, my ISP, DCA.NET, says that their web based mail program will put my email address in the "reply to" field even if I leave it blank. Hate to change ISP's, although I occasionally use PINE as I have a Unix shell account. Anyone know if Pine can be configured not to value the reply to field or is it implementation dependent ?
