I'm sure if such a feature were implemented, mike would have the sense to make it clear where the message was going. If you cliked 'Reply' on the website for a job posting and saw 'This message will be emailed directly to the author of this post' then you submitted it and saw a message that said... 'Your message has been emailed to the author...etc...'
I would hope you'd know where it went by that point and not resubmit it. ..:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:. Bobby Hartsfield http://acoderslife.com http://cf4em.com -----Original Message----- From: Phillip M. Vector [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 30, 2008 11:37 AM To: CF-Jobs-Talk Subject: Re: CF programmer with experience building Social networking sites I just went through a few recent mails on the cf-jobs list and replied to them. All of them went to the author. I even went to that one we are talking about and got Eric Ranelo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> as the replyto address. The issue came up when someone posted that no email address was on the list when it was on the forums. They replied on cf-jobs-talk. Which doesn't make much sense IMHO. As for it being bad, as a user, figure that I'm seeing these posts on a forum and I am reading the cf-jobs threads. If I click on "reply", I would want it to go to the email of that user (or private message him or what have you ). I wouldn't want it to go to a different thread because then, after I reply, I wouldn't see the post and figure it didn't take, so I'd post again. All I'm saying is that if you click reply on a forum, it shouldn't reply to a different thread. That just seems wrong to me. and tactful isn't my strong suit. I am sorry if anyone was offended.
