Please ... could we stop discussing mailing-list mechanics on this
list?  I actually prefer not seeing every reply to every query.  But
preferences aside, whether replies should go to the list or the sender
is a debate that every one of us has gone through on
how-many-other-mailing-lists.  If you don't like the default
configuration of the LyX-list, use your reply-to-all key when
replying.  Whatever your preference, your mailer can accomodate
sending replies to as many or as few people as you want.

Could we please return to our regularly scheduled discussion of using
LyX instead of continuing this noise about how the list should be run?

Another `Steve' chirping in here.

I agree, I've recently signed up for the list and was puzzled why this
behaviour is allowed. Surely people replying to the list would be [as
Steve Litt pointed out] encourage better dissemination of information.

My $.02 CDN cents.

Please ... could we stop discussing mailing-list mechanics on this
list?  I actually prefer not seeing every reply to every query.  But
preferences aside, whether replies should go to the list or the sender
is a debate that every one of us has gone through on
how-many-other-mailing-lists.  If you don't like the default
configuration of the LyX-list, use your reply-to-all key when
replying.  Whatever your preference, your mailer can accomodate
sending replies to as many or as few people as you want.

Could we please return to our regularly scheduled discussion of using
LyX instead of continuing this noise about how the list should be run?

  Which version do you have?
  
  For 1.0 and previous
  
  list lyx-devel
  
  or in version 1.2:
  
  subscribe lyx-devel
  
  should give what you want.
  
  L for replying the mailing list.

I can live with the present setting.

One point still (after reading the abovementioned page). "Reply to all" will
automatically give the sender two copies ... at least if he/she is
subscribed to the list.

so use list-reply or the equivalent in your mailer. That's what I have set now.

We really need a 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
list I think ;)

Why pick on the web-team?

We're called the web-team because we work on the web-site not the
mailing lists, not the LyX code, not cvs repository access, not on the
various email aliases, not on policy decisions for anything other than
the two web-sites...

WEB != We Embrace Blame.

If you are having problems filtering like this then you need to sort
out what you are filtering on.

List-Post: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

is probably the best header.

Hey,

this is quite a bit OT. I regularily run into troubles using my 
Mailfilters (serveral for LyX and others) in Mozilla 0.9.6.

This is because people adress their mailss primarily to people who 
started a thread and secondly to this user-list.(BTW these people 
receive this message twice!)
Therefore I used to find a mess in my mailbox because mails of different 
sources are messed into one folder.

Maybe I am not the only one who faces this problem? So I would like to 
see people to adress primarily to the user-list and if necessary at all 
secondly  cc-ing to other LyXers.

Please make up your mind and tell me what you are thinking about this
Maybe there is a workaround and I am not aware of:-))

Any statements solely to my adress, don't flood this list, please!
