Amen to that. If it wasn't for the most excellent answers to my
questions, I would have left this list long ago because of this
"feature".
As far as having 100 or 1000 people on the list making "awfully big
headers" -- what's up with that? I am on other lists that have
hundreds of subscribers and they don't have any problems with a
simple "reply to" button that simply sends the reply to the list --
so why can't this list do that?

You're pretty clear to me Scott and I agree -- however, I'm just a
beginner (at MacPerl) and everything looks pretty simple to me.
