Another rare occasion where I agree with Harald, it annoys me greatly that people find the need to reply directly as well as a list, I mean we *are* all on the same list, so we will *all* , yes, including intended recipient, get the post, do people think that sending it directly will get read sooner? Not always, this account for instance sorts by list, anything not associate with a list-id or x-been-there, gets sent to an x-blah folder right at the end, so my inbox stays pretty empty, and your direct messages may not get read for weeks, as I liken it to a second spam folder :) in some cases, some lit software can be configured to not send a list post to you if you are in the To/CC field, this becomes extra steps to reply to list, I have to drag and drop the darn message into the list "folder" where I prefer to keep list posts for history until I decide to shrink it. Its also a pet hate of mine where lists are not configured to reply-list only, Thomas has correctly set this one up, pitty a few more didn't follow his lead. > I am such a user, and I want both. > Why? most mailing list software configured correctly with MDA's send just as quick as a direct, the list server I run, (not now but a few years ago) ran a usenet-mailing list gw, some of those lists had 5K members, and a post would take all of 25 seconds to be sent to everyone. so, I fail to see the point of why you want two copies of the same thing, you either send a reply to hte list for all to see, or, send a direct message to the poster if your comments are not fit for general (list) consumption, not both.
