Hi,
For some reason, any agora-* conversation (tested with my register
message, a random one coming from agora-official and another one coming
from this list) includes a reply-to header which points to this list,
and excludes any other agora-* list. This means that I should always
"reply to list" instead of "reply to sender only", even though both are
the same address (but the sender address gets overwritten by the
reply-to header), because if I fail to do so the message will be sent to
this list (that was what happened yesterday). Is this intentional?
(Just in case somebody is seeing list logs (not archives), sorry for
attempting to send messages twice, I tend to forget to select this alias
and the list duly complains.).
Normally, replies to a list don't want to go back to that same list
anyway. For example, proposal distributions go to agora-official, but
discussion of them should go to agora-discussion and votes on them
should go to agora-business.
We've had the reply-to set to agora-discussion for ages, because
discussing a message is the most common sort of "reply" to it. In
particular, a reply-to of agora-official is almost certainly incorrect
because it's very rare to send replies to that list (unless an officer
is correcting a mistake in a report). You could make more of an
argument for agora-business, but in general there's less potential
damage from posts going to -discussion by mistake than there is from
posts going to -business by mistake.
Yup, makes sense. Thanks! I believe this could be documented somewhere
just in case (maybe I missed it?).
