[ILUG] fixing Ilug's addressing - one last thing ;)

[McDaid, Aaron]

Actually I meant just changing what the "reply to all"
button does, if that's possible.

I DO want the "reply" button to just
go straight to one person (like it says
in that link on the faq). first paragraph of:
http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html

If I changed the context of my question to how
would I do this with a list of my own, would
you let me away with it ;)

I assume it would involve me writing scripts
serverside so what is the best mailing list
software for customisation (ie. sticking
scripts in etc.)

I should "Use the source, Luke"
