> or reply all and share with the list.

Just to make sure people are aware, this is in fact *not* the standard way.
'Reply List' is the appropriate method, wherein one copy of the mail is sent to
the list. 'Reply All' is a Bad Thing, at least on lists, sending a copy to the
list *and* to the OP.

A lot of people don't like getting two copies of every post to a list, and can
get right peeved about it.

As has been discussed at length in other threads, most mailers can be set to
override one person's reply-to settings automatically and default to the list
instead (and *only* the list).
