Every message in my mailbox is addressed to me otherwise I wouldn't
get it.  Do you mean the To: line?  Which address?  I have about a
dozen addresses not counting the plus sign addresses like the one you

As the person who proposed this I would like to point out that I never
suggested "reply to all”.  I suggested including the poster that you
are replying to.
