I don't believe it is up to the list owner.
And since we are discussing full-list and private replies, wouldn't Darcy's message have been better directed at Henry Howey specifically, since nobody else on the list can do anything about it, even enquire as to the feasability of switching things?
Personally, I don't care -- I don't view e-mail as a private medium and I don't mind when private replies go to the list.
I'm just thankful that Henry is still able to convince SHSU to host this list! And I hope that people pestering him about something over which he has no control doesn't convince him it just isn't worth the bother. After all, he is one of the LEAST frequent posters on the list!

As I recall, and my memory isn't as good as it used to be, the last time this subject came up, a short while after the list switchover, Henry asked the University IT man in charge of lists, if it could be switched, and the answer was, no.
