This is somewhat true ... but I still care; even if the standard sways 
to the other side.  In fifteen years of mailing lists, this has come up 
more and more in recent history.  I'd like to know how many people have 
sent E-mails to their E-mail software authors asking for a 'reply to 
list' option in their mailers ...

My E-mail software also does those things for me ... again, you might 
want different E-mail software.  I'm sure many people on this list 
(yourself included?) remember the number of "that's because you use AOL" 
responses AOL users got to their E-mail problem requests in the last 
years ... the same applies to MS products now (although you use KMail, 
not Outlook and its ill-formed compatriates).
