I agree with you Joseph! I save many e-mails relating to topics that I might use. If people would change topics to better reflect the correct subject, people could delete items they are not interested in. Better subject headers is more important than changing the reply command.
Terry Powers -----Original Message----- From: Joseph Lee [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 31, 2007 6:56 PM To: 'Braillenote List' Subject: RE: [Braillenote] Notetaker comparisons and list traffic Terri and list, But the problem is that the whole list won't be able to see the message if an important message is sent to the original poster. And some of us does not know how to utilize that function in email clients. If it is an answer to a question that the original poster has sent, then the original sender will receive it, not the whole list. And if there are numerous people who have same or similar experiences? They can share their opinion about that particular issue, and the answer may benefit not just the sender, but the whole list. And if anybody has an issue that has been discussed before, then that person can save the answer and use it to solve the problem without having to clutter the list traffic. Also, that person can always access the list archive and see what the list had to say regarding the issue that he or she is experiencing and get an answer from there. This is just my opinion.

There's a note at the end of each post reminding listers their replies will go to the sender only and if the poster thinks his or her message would benefit the whole list, the poster can choose than option in their email program. I would be in favor of such a change for the BN list. Terri Amateur Radio call sign KF6CA.
