You are the only other user here I can presently determine providing
a Reply-To, & it is loaded with the Pine Discussion Forum address.
So I know my Role works fine with any reply I make to a message from
you. A previous reply from you did not offer the Reply-To, & we both
ended up doing the same thing - going off list/forum - I am sure we
both did by mistake. That sort of started me on this project.

Sure, the manual approach I started with, it provides a more open &
versatile method actually. I just got fancy with the Role method,
because I am lazy & like to do something only once, & in this case
used the subject pattern [Pine-info] as key.

As a matter of fact I just updated the Role to eliminate the
Reply-To-All issue, no duplicate problems for anybody - all replies
from me return to this list/forum unless somebody specifically
provides a Reply-To otherwise - to intentionally go off list/forum.
Which is fine in some cases - even required to avoid off topic
replies & any personal chatter.
