Personally, I figure if it came from the list, my reply is public. If I want to do a private, I jump through the extra hoops. But I'm sure that's been shaped by the years of using lists. I don't know why Mailman call "reply to poster" the preferred. But this list is (was) unique in following that preference. Hmmmm. So maybe the fault is my odd selection of list to subscribe to. :) Anyway, thanks for the change. I hope it doesn't annoy to many other users. -- Philip _______________________________________________ Xcircuit-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.opencircuitdesign.com/mailman/listinfo/xcircuit-dev
