Hi there all

I seem to be having problems getting pattern matching with roles when
replying to e-mails

I have for this list for exemple,

To pattern      = [email-masked]

in a role for mailing to this list, but when i reply to an e-mail to this
list, it doesn't use the role. it uses the first roles in my list of
roles.

any ideas anyone?

The above should be standard man, they rock!

Hello Nicholas!

  What values are you using for the other configuration options?, you
should be using "No Value Set" for any other configuration setting (e.g.
From:, etc). Actually, at least for this list, I use the sender field, not
the To:  field, as the To: field, as you can see, is not always "To:" the
list.

  Regards,

The matching starts with the first role and goes until a match is found.
So the first role that matches wins. If you have a match that comes before
the role you want to match that is the role that will be used. You can
usually get around this problem by putting more specific roles at the top
of the list and less specific roles at the bottom.
