Something I've noticed with my own account ...

My tigris ID was associated with my CollabNet email, but I subscribe
to the lists using gmail so that I can keep the mail separate and
organized. So after the upgrade I had to add gmail as a secondary
address. I have been noticing that when people are using Reply-All to
respond to my messages on this list they are now going to my CollabNet
email account and not gmail. So basically, it is associating my mail
with my tigris account and then changing the email address when it
sends it out to others. Or at least when setting the ReplyTo. This
sucks because now I just get emails in both places and I do not want
that.
