Only badly behaved ones do. This field is for the SENDER to set ( for instance, if they do not want to get a duplicate reply and have the reply only to to the mailing list ), not the mailing list. See http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html. >> so please use reply-to-all instead. > And I was so often chastised exactly for using reply-to-all.

If a subscriber does not want to get a direct reply, they can simply set the reply-to header to point to the mailing list and they won't get a duplicate reply, but other people who want the reply, or messages cross posted to multiple mailing lists will not be broken. Alternatively they can set up a filter to notice when the message has been sent to both them and a mailing list they subscribe to and delete the duplicate. Another alternative is offered by most mailing lists where you can configure it to not send you a copy of the message if you are already listed in the to or cc. Any way you do it, the onus is on the person not wanting the duplicate to avoid it, not on everyone else, especially when doing so causes some people who should get a copy of the message not to, which is much more harmful than someone getting a duplicate copy they don't want. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJRXdWIAAoJEJrBOlT6nu7543QIAMs3qO2yqDRVVChrUGtv54wt M2VZx1+fyq3JJB3lvNQ1AfNAzqMFUZFK+rj3ugEdg1dCF0J+16kyMV4XO68wm4eb k1vHxfrjFxL+6wzMLun5LYTDU1u2NjlYhnTktKxlsMJd6xslB8vC9MwnXrsCe1Xc QCId4v5+FlM2Gt1kyf2MZzBEJ6CJfvds8i3DEA4GJJNGcylqd5gYLH5vyH9sveIP mP+ahqdPT1xnKN4q/+TrZtnKwXIRIg/rSVBBNt9Rru4GFwv5zZ5bZyLNyq8ilc13 wR1l6EDB5SHBZp/7Tgk1/ZHBb8S9Wcwu4kK6BeTs+SwkTcIuMA9mN4l4AGI/klc= =P+7M -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
