[gui-talk] speaking of Dave Andrews and posts (was blank messages from this list)

[Joel Deutsch]

aha! Dave, it doesn't say that when it appears in my inbox! It says it's 
been redirected or something by someone from you as the originator, to 
paraphrase what it seems to be saying. It gives that person's name. I can't 
remember the phrasing, but it's not what you're describing. Looks a lot more 
awkward than that. I'm getting my messages in OE, if that matters.

Eudora, the mail program I use has a function called redirect, which
I sometimes use because I get sick of seeing my name on posts.  The
function makes it look like the post is from the originator, while
technically it is still from me, satisfying the list requirements of
membership.
