Email has many attributes: some you see, some you don't, some mail clients let you set some things that can get sent along so a mail client can decide what to do with it.

For instance, a simple 3 or 4 line email from the BBoard to me shows:

The total email part was:

>> No - in many mail clients 'Reply-To' will trump 'From' without even
letting you know. In some instances it's useful - and in some it's not.
<<

What do you mean? My email has "Reply" but I don't see a separate "Reply
to" anywhere, so I guess I don't have it. Do some email programs have
"Reply to" in addition, and in that case, what exactly does it do? Where
does it get the address that it sends the email to? From what you say I
guess it's not the one it was sent from. Can you (or anyone) explain more
about this?

There's a lot of information packed in the headers most people will ignore, but for those of us who have to administer the emails the headers are invaluable.

FYI - I have set up the BBoards to email Karl and I for every post. That's how we can see what's going on without having to be continually logged into the BBoard.
