Yes, there was, and a very good one.
There were too many private opinions
escaping onto the list and into the aether,
so it was decided to minimize that possibility.

Subject: [LUTE] Question for list admin
Other mailing lists that I'm on are set up
so that hitting reply sends a message to
the list, not the poster of the message that
I'm replying to. I find myself replying,
then realizing (sometimes) that the message
will not go to the list, so I send another one.
I also get many personal replies to my messages
that don't go to the list. I think that a
portion of those were from people that intended
to send to the list.
So I was just wondering whether there was a
reason that the list was set up this way, or
whether it was something that had been
overlooked.
Thanks,
Tobiah
