Please excuse me jumping in here but, John, your suggestion is sound
regardless of the program.  In pretty much every email program you can cut
and paste the name of the person you're sending to.  So Jean would be best
to reply as normal, but then instead of leaving the To: field as is, go to
the message, cut or copy the email address of the person she's sending to
from the body of the message where it is showing up, and then paste it into
the To: field instead of the list address.  That's the way with many lists
and I can't think of an email program that doesn't support the cut and paste
method.

Sending this to the list in case there are others who have the same
difficulty.
Margaret

Whatever you're doing to forward messages picks up the From: line.
You've done it again.  See the From: line below in my message
that you forwarded?

My suggestion would be to start to forward a message,
pick the address out of hte From: line, then send a message
to that address.

Beyond that, I can't be much help, since I don't know what software you're
using, and if it's a Microsoft product I won't know anything about it.

Is there someone on the list who can help Jean?

Thanks,
John
