Hi all,
All:  OH HAI!

There's been some discussion about whom to reply to. I guess it's a
personal preference, and my personal preference is described in the
remainder of this email...

If you want to reply to me, on-list, please reply to the list only.
You can ask, but it's mostly futile because most people's software
doesn't handle mailing lists intelligently.  Exceptions include mutt
(which I use) and emacs GNUS.  Both of those have a (configurable)
ability to do list-mode replying, in which the MUA trims out
non-mailing-list addresses, whenever the user does a group reply that
includes a mailing list address.  (I'm being a bit inexact.  The details
are IMO not worth detail-freaking to death.)

Shockingly enough Thunderbird isn't half bad.


There are a lot of bad mail clients out there, though.
