That's a rather strange idea - there are _many_ reasons to only reply in a private/personal mail. Imagine the OP making an embarassing fax-pas. Do you really prefer to inform her/him in public? I was actually pretty shocked by Anton's mail: long, long ago I was told that replying to/forwarding a private mail to a mailing list/usenet group is considered incredibly rude (I got a copy of "Zen or the Art of Internet" from the local Sysadmin when i applied for my first shell account). To qoute that manual: "In the interests of privacy, it's considered extremely bad taste to post any email that someone may have sent, unless they explicitly give you permission to redistribute it. While the legal issues can be heavily debated, most everyone agrees that email should be treated as anything that are carried with it." But that was long before AOL ;-( > That defeats the object of the list Depends.
