I mean, for those who have used an email client for years like me and who are more technically advanced and used to hitting reply all, it doesn't bother me that this list is different, but from a configuration point of view it bothers me. I don't mind having to use bypass, but still it would be nice not to have to remember to hit reply all; the reason for reply all is for specific groups to ensure that all parties get the message, not as a topic cop. And besides, what's wrong with a few tangents every now and then? I'm on like eight lists all together, and more than 90 percent of the topics on those lists start on topic and then go way off, and the moderators never mind it at all. Albeit those lists being more technical in terms of their topics.

If we aren't going to do that by running a list the way the rest of the world does it, then how about at least allowing them to use the "reply to all" key as Vic outlines, so they don't have to try to redefine a hotkey themselves, or work with bypass, or any of the other solutions?

In GW Micro's case one criticism that keeps coming up from non WE users in some of my circles is the control shift R as the read-to-end hot key. Minor yes, however you know how it is, anything to grab on to is OK when slamming the other guy. Now GW Micro has made changes from time to time that affected the keyboard layout. yes we can re-define the hotkeys ourselves, but it is easier if we don't have to go there. Control Shift R is the reply to all keyboard shortcut for many email applications. For those of us who don't use the insert key layout app or who prefer not to re-define the hotkeys, changing control shift R to control shift spacebar might be something for GW Micro to consider. I like the idea of the spacebar over the enter key, because control enter is also the send keyboard shortcut for many email clients. It might be too easy to make a mistake when trying to press control shift enter.
