Ok, thanks. I didn't think we should be replying to individuals unless on special case's. I also will have edit my header, but that's fine.

Depends on the mail client I am using to reply. In mutt or kmail, I hit "Reply to list", and the reply just goes to the list. In Thunderbird, I use "Reply All", and edit the recipients by hand so that it just goes to the list, and curse the Thunderbird developers. You should not reply to the individual unless you have something private to tell them. Keep replies on the list, for the benefit of anyone else reading. Personally, I get annoyed when people CC me on replies that I'm also getting from the list, but I've long since stopped trying to hold the tide back :) Thank you for asking, and welcome! -- Steven _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor Mark R Rivet, Genesis Software Consulting ASCT(Computer Technologies), BSIT/SE(Software Engineering) Electrical Engineering Technician Member IEEE, Computer Society Do or do not; there is no try. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
