Hi, _All_ my other lists have the default to Reply to the list instead of the poster. And there I do not get lots of private e-mails which are sent to the whole list accidentally. (Of course this happens sometimes. I did this too. Embarassing.) I also think that part of the replies in this list are sent to the poster instead of the list. Therefore I would prefer that also Framers use the default to Reply to All.

These days, most of us don't have time for that and we miss so much good information that could help us all. I know that often someone posts something that I want to watch for replies, only to never read another word on the subject except a mention of all the great off-list replies. Related to this is what I find to be a major pain in the a**-- pressing Ctrl-R and forgetting that my reply will go only to the original poster. I have to then find the Framers email address, copy/paste it into the header or a new email, and resend the message. I think this may be contributing to the propensity of off-list replies. When I originally set up this new Framers list, I opted to set the default Reply-To behavior to send only to the poster and not the list because it was the recommended action for new lists. I'm beginning to really regret that decision. So as List Mom, I'd like to change the default reply behavior to go to the list and not to the sender. I realize that this might create situations that could prove embarrassing if one accidentally sends a private reply to the entire list. I'm willing to entertain valid arguments both pro and con to this change in list behavior. I'd prefer receiving them off-list (ca...@frameusers.com) unless you feel that your argument merits all 1089 of us taking the time to read it. I won't make this decision unilaterally -- this list belongs to all of us and relies on all of us to provide good content and helpful advice. Bear in mind that if I DO make this change, I will give plenty of advance warning and repeat it a few times before making the change so that we all have time to retrain our brains.
