No. It tells you where to send *posts* if you want to *post* to the list. Why should it be up to the mailing list admin to dictate whether *I* want to be CC'ed on replies to my post? This is why another header is needed. I like to be CC'ed on replies because my main email address and list address are different, and so replies to my posts go right to me, which is nice. > That, in my opinion, is the best way of eliminating the problem of > private mails getting sent to the list and vice versa: you let the user > decide to reply to the sender or the list, and the mailer knows enough > to do both. It is the best way of eliminating private mails, maybe. But thats not what everyone wants. ryan -- Ryan Golbeck <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GPG: 1024D/78916B84 -- 1B1B 2A87 3F00 A7FB 40F3 526D 36CF BA44 7891 6B84
