I agree with Lance here.  Personally, I'd like it if subscribers 
addresses were never exposed.  This is a list - not a tea party.

I get tired of ditching addresses because folks include a personal 
address in the text of the reply and spam bots pick it up.

I think if people want personal communication, they should use different 
means to get addresses and initiate a conversation.  If you have an 
issue, you address it to the list.  If you want to respond to an issue, 
you address it to the list.  A person might also want to respond to an 
issue without opening themselves up to unsolicited personal responses.

(And though I wish "get a new browser" were a valid solution at times, I 
don't think "get a new email client" is a good solution here.)

Just another opinion.
Tim
