I guess I somehow missed the center point of this thread but, I wanted to add that, I have noticed that when I do a "reply" to a message that I have read Outlook wants to send it to the originator of the message instead of the List. I have to manually change the address to go to the List. Is this maybe relevant to what this discussion is about? Maybe someone got a direct reply that didn't necessarily want it. Just a thought.

ALL replies to questions posted on the list ought to be posted to the list, NOT to the person posting. The exceptions would be replies of a personal nature, or stuff that is simply way off topic. One of the basic premises of an email list is that if one person has a technical problem, others with similar interests are likely to have a similar problem and be interested in the answer. Another good reason for posting to the list is that public answers get the benefit of peer review, while private replies don't.
