I have a partial answer to this conundrum. Sometimes (as this message) when I
respond, the response automatically goes to the MOJASPER list. Other times it
is automatically addressed to the individual who sent the query. I still
don't know why this is because it can and does happen either way on the same list.
I do know if I pay attention to the 'Send To' and if I see it is addressed to
an individual account, I can take the time to change it to be directed to the
list. Another one of life's many mysteries. I think it is like electricity,
pure magic.
