Re: [U2] Changes to mail list configurations
I'm lucky to keep up with this list, how do you find the time? As I am writing this message, using the reply to all button, I notice that the email is not only going to the list and David but also to Tony is this a progressive thing? When you send the email, I'm using Outlook Express, using reply to all it adds all previous to's to the list and I see this as an even bigger problem. Admittedly I am not a big list subscriber but it seems that there was no problem on this list until just recently when someone or something caused the list to go haywire and that should be fixed not the list. - Original Message - From: Logan, David (SST - Adelaide) [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Tony Gravagno [EMAIL PROTECTED]; u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Sent: Monday, February 27, 2006 5:02 PM Subject: RE: [U2] Changes to mail list configurations Sounds like the sky is falling.

RE: [U2] Changes to mail list configurations
This is a relatively minor change and the dark side of the force seem to be gathering strength against it. The list headers still have the u2ug address in them and your rules should still apply. If not, then change them so they do! Perhaps the dark side haven't really explained themselves well but I can't understand what the fuss is about. There seem to be a number of hypotheticals that assume people are incapable of managing change. I would note again, this is NOT a unique list situation. This is in fact, a more common setup than one thinks. Perhaps somebody could subscribe to the Sun Managers list, one does not reply to the list, only to the sender and the sender then publishes a summary, or perhaps one or two of the MySQL lists which use exactly this system. All lists to which I subscribe use their own methods for managing the reply, you just get used to them. The subscribers to these lists seem to handle the situation quite well. In fact, I note recent posters to this list, have all managed to reply to the list without issue and my outlook rules have placed their messages in the correct folder.

RE: [U2] Changes to mail list configurations
A) I don't understand why you would have to change anything to send your email to the list through a remailer. B) the list does NOT accept email from unsubscribed users. I manually approved your recent post that was sent from an unsubscribed address because I felt it was germaine, and I didn't want to wait for a bounce/reply/re-post cycle.

One list I subscribe to doesn't include the list address in posted messages, so you can't even use the reply-all option and have to key in the list address. The current setup of the U2 list is at least a little easier. This particular debate has been going on for many years, and for those unfamiliar, see The Great Reply-to Debate section at this link: http://producingoss.com/html-chunk/mailing-lists.html There are pros and cons both ways.

Sadly there is a large world out there that can't be ignored. As Larry
put it, this is the usual way that most lists use. I run a couple of
lists myself and this is normal behaviour.
Perhaps one of the reasons why there aren't that many new people coming
into the u2 arena is encapsulated in the response above. We, as a
community, need to know what else is going on in the world.
Unfortunately taking the insular path does not always work. The love of
rationality has nowt to do with the real world.

Well, maybe in the spirit of democracy, the U2UG should vote for their preference. I like the new way myself, as it is much harder to accidently email everyone when I just want to respond to the sender, and easier to do both. Before, I would have to cut and paste the sender's name into the to window if I wanted to reply only to them. This is much easier.

If we're voting, I vote for the new way. After all . . . http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html (and, yes, I expect the response article will be referred to quickly enough here.) Just about every list I belong to has had this very same discussion. Just about every one has switched to this new way.

Munging email headers - BAD Munging anything can be dangerous to it's health - LOL I googled 'munge' and the first hit was a link to a page indicating Microsoft dropped the munge.exe find/replace utility from it's Resource Kits - I guess munging just isn't cool anymore ;-) --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
