I and others on lyx-users sometimes only respond to the list. I think
this is common practice for many mailing lists. However, some users
send questions to the list without signing up for it. In fact, it
seems we encourage this:
"To ask a question about LyX, simply email the question to the members
of the list at lyx-us...@lists.lyx.org. You do not need to be a
subscriber to send a question to the list."
http://www.lyx.org/MailingLists

I'm not sure they know that they are expected to check a web interface
to view the replies.

Thus, I propose that we either
(1) change the list to only accept messages from subscribers
or
(2) have a policy of CC'ing the user when responding on lyx-users.

Thoughts?
