Hi John, I totally agree with you but we probably have to accept that - over
the long life of MOPO - schisms have emerged & become fixed. MOPO has become
increasingly bad-tempered & tribal over the years and so terrific people who
used to post don't now post very often. I'm thinking about people like Andrea
& Sue but there are many others. Probably there's a silent majority who just
feel it's not worth the trouble posting in case they get attacked.

I agree with Tommy that some people might mistakenly hit the "Reply" button
rather than "Reply All" but I am really talking about people who deliberately
reply "Offlist" with private comments. They often make very good and valid
points and its a pity that they dont want to post to everyone on the List.

People need to learn who to use email. It's very easy.

The decision was made many many moons ago to make the default REPLY TO
address the address of the original sender, rather than the mopo-l address.
This was done because there were several instances of people who had meant
their reply be private to the post’s original author but instead the message
went out to MoPo at large.
We can revisit this decision if you like, but I do remember a couple of
very private negotiations that accidentally went public.
You can always use REPLY ALL, then your post gets sent to the original
author AND the group.
Opinions on changing the REPLY default?

I suspect part of the problem is that when you click on 'reply' it
addresses the response to only the original sender by default, and you have to
scroll down to send to all the subscribers. Might be better if that could be
reversed.

In the last few years I have been getting a lot of private responses and
comments from MoPo members. It does seem that MoPo generates a great deal of
discussion but a lot of it is "Offlist" for the recipient only so the thoughts
of various members are never made public to the entire list. I wonder if this
is just applicable to MoPo because all of the email addresses are readily
available. I would imagine that this wouldn't happen so much on the other
discussion boards because it takes more time and effort to contact members off
list. Maybe it might be better for people to post their thoughts publicly
rather than private emails which defeats the purpose of a discussion board.
Just an observation.
