this is a great idea; and its the same concept employed for posts to
user submitted messages on the php website.
regarding configuring mail clients to omit the senders address in the
reply, well, this is one of those things that you just cant expect every
user to do. its in the same vein as the topic dan started about the
whole [SOLVED] thing. you really cant enforce anything, since some
people dont care, and new people are signing up every day. obviously,
there can be recommendations, but in accordance wich the basic
premise of the web, if you dont want to run the risk, then dont participate.
its really that simple.
