Right, the Audifans set-up is that the mailer essentially forwards each
submission.  But the recipient's e-mail program determines how responses go.

I know all about the other approaches.  Our business gets a couple of Yahoo
lists where the "from" is the Yahoo list and you have to search for the
original poster's address to make private responses.

My point was that, given the audifans.com set-up, it's the recipient's use
of their own mailer program that determines whether their responses go to
the poster or to the list and the poster.
