First, I can't speak for everyone else, but I generally find it receive
an uninvited reply directly to my e-mail address rather than to the
group/list. Maybe it's just my old IRCer prejudice against unsolicited PMs.

Second, people generally have lives of their own and, in all the
contexts I've been in, expecting others to tease your requirements out
of you with a game of 20 questions is considered rude at best and
arrogant and annoying at worst.

I suggest you read http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

While it's focused on questions rather than feature requests, the
underlying principles are equally relevant.

Note: My e-mail address IS valid. It's a little trick I use to fool
"smarter" spambots and remind friends and family to use the custom
aliases I gave them.

connectivity to a physical network are well understood - see how these
rules translate into the virtual world?
