The Reply-All feature of Netscape replies to all senders and other
recipients, but logically assumes the direct recipient (you) doesn't
want the reply. So every time I reply to a message, I have to put
the list address in.
I don't think that making it harder for people with inadequate mail
programs is a very nice target to set yourself on. I have seen no
reply-to headers on any messages from this list, and assiming the
original sender of the message is on the list, replying to the
list address will make them recieve the message anyway.
9 out of 10 times, replies to list mail should go to the list,
and if you send a private message you should check that it
is going to who you want it to. Coupled with the fact I find
it very annoying to recieve two of the same message from
lists that don't have the courtesy to provide a working reply-to.
Including a reply-to will not cause a major hindrance for most
mail programs, but leaving it out will. And in conclusion, I
hate HTML mail but using my browser as a mail program saves
RAM and disk space for me, which is a priority.
