Reply all replys to self?
Hello, Lately when I have switch mail providers, any time I click "reply all" the email also replys to myself by default. I have not been able to find any clues as to why this might happen or any leads from my mail provider. I am using MS Outlook 2007, and there is one other person in my office who is using 2007 but she dose not have the same problem. OS: WinXP

Reply to All will send a message back to you if you are part of "all". Most commonly this happens when you reply to all from your sent items, or if you reply to all from a message that has a group of which youre a member. next time hit reply to all and look at the address bar before you hit send. you will be in there.Mike Crowley: MCT, MCSE, MCTS, MCITP: Enterprise Administrator / Messaging Administrator

Thank you for the insight, I wasnt sure because its only recent that I have noticed this after we switched mail providers. However as I look at it that makes since so I tested it with my PC and co-workers PC and indeed most commonly its only if its a msg of which came from that user. Thanks -Travis

if you're SURE you arent in the "to" box or in one of the groups in the "to" box then the only think I can think of would be someone has a rule forwarding mail to you as a seperate action. this can be done from within exchange or on the users outlook software. you can review message headers for greater detail to compare messages between yourself and actual listed recipients. i would guess if this later scenario is true you'll find different message headers.Mike Crowley: MCT, MCSE, MCTS, MCITP: Enterprise Administrator / Messaging Administrator

Hi Travis, I agree with Mike that you need to check whether you are in the To box when you clicking Reply To All button. If you are already in the To box, it is normal the message is sent to you. If you are not in the To box but you still received the message, it mostly occurs because some Rules are configured to forward message to you. Mike

I'm having the exact same issue as tflynn. In Microsoft 2003, when you hit "Reply to All" in Outlook, it wouldn't include me on it. It now does it with 2007, can this be resolved? Thanks!

if you get an email with a bunch of other people on it, reply to all doesnt send a copy back to you. however if you reply to all from sent items, or another message where you're in the to box its going to send it back to you.

Hi,I have this same problem, and posted herewhat I thought was a solution, but it was short-lived. I've posted a question specific to how I've reproduced this issue here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrclients/thread/4a598149-168a-48c2-9d88-7adc941f3cbcGiles
