"Microsoft sucks"? :-/

Someone else reported this once, but I assumed it was just something
weird at his site (it doesn't happen here). It's definitely not anything
that Evo is doing, because Evo doesn't even know that the address is the
address of a group rather than a person. So Exchange must get confused
in the case where you submit a message to a list via WebDAV or
something? Blah.

If SMTP is enabled on your Exchange server, then using that instead of
Exchange for sending mail will probably fix the problem.
