I'm a little confused by the intent of your note above.  If this is directed at 
me, I replied to your message the way I always reply, with
reply all.  That goes to the list.  It also goes to you directly, since
you don't set your reply-to header.  If you prefer to get just one copy of any reply 
(i.e. the one that goes to the list), set your reply-to
header to point to the list.  My email client will obey your stated preference 
automatically.  Of course, if you were directing this comment
at someone else, then you can ignore the above.
You have made an assumption that everyone accesses this list the same way you do.  
For those of us that use the nntp gateway, we cannot set our reply-to field to be the 
list.


Good point.  My apologies.  I guess if your method of access doesn't 
support reply-to, you're stuck with the status quo unless you decide 
to use Chris's new reply-to only list.  You (and anyone else that has
this problem) might want to check it out.
