As I've noted before, if someone receives the digest form of the list, 
there is no way of knowing whether the sender is subscribed or not -- 
the item-specific headers are very restricted.  It surely wouldn't be 
rocket science to flag the subject line?

Meanwhile, people like me have a choice - reply to list only (and risk 
the poster not seeing it), or send to list /and/ poster (and risk 
annoying the poster when he gets two copies). Not that I often 
contribute answers - others seem to do a better and faster job anyway 
(for which, thanks!!)
