there is at least one good reason why folks do not do this any more: spammers collect addresses of people from usenet and mailing list posts. some of the better list software now create archives that blank out a section of the sender's address to make it unusable. of course there are other ways for spammers to collect addresses from list posts, but it is still worthwhile to make their job difficult, if only a bit more. as for getting the list member's address you can find it in the headers of each message that is sent to the list, in all the popular mailreaders today: mozilla, netscape, eudora, outlook, etc. if you use mozilla (http://www.mozilla.org/ - warning: this is pre-release software) you can even copy that header using a helpful popup menu right from the header and paste it into the recepient field of your response. > Further, some discussions are so inherently anglo-american that it is > impossible for me to comprehend what is going on.
