Yes, but there's more points on this subject too... Given that different lists have different policies, and that it takes a mental decision by the replier to choose the correct reply method, it seems to me that mistakes will happen. For example, if you spend most of the week on Linux kernel related lists, it's mandatory to use reply-to-all unless you really want to reply to just the sender. Reply-to-list is strongly abhored. Then if you come to exim-users, you have to remember to use a different reply behaviour. If you hardly reply on exim-users, that's going to be very accident prone. So, I don't think this kind of jumping down people's throats and threatening to ignore people when they use the wrong reply button is acceptable behaviour. It could just be an accident caused by there being no automatic way for an email client to have the _right_ behaviour for a particular list policy. All the time that list policy is reliant on the right reply button being pressed, mistakes will happen. -- Russell King -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
