Exactly Mark.

About three or four years ago we went through this discussion and it
was the consensus that the reply-to button addressed the list.  For
the time being, I have retset the "reply-to" button to go directly to
the poster since, so far, based on recnt replies this is way others
would prefer it.

I would ask the list members to voice their opinion on this option and
lets set it once and for all, one way or the other.  I find it much
more convenient to have it address the list when I hit reply myself.

As Mark mentioned, this is NOT a bug, but a choice.

This seems to come up on every list I belong to (> 35) every so often. It's not 
so much a bug but a choice. It also is NOT turning a reply into a reply-to-all.

When you click the reply button it can only go one of two ways. To the list 
(the source of the email to you), or to the poster of the message to the list. 
It can only go one way or the other. I would contends that it is in the most 
favorable position. I'd guess that most of the time when someone replies, they 
want to reply to the list and not to the individual that posted the message.

I just checked:
All lists I belong to except one default to replying to the entire list when 
you hit
the reply button. All the Yahoo lists. The LWCA.ORG list. The only one that 
does not,
the one that's different is the GlowBugs list.
