Amusingly, you've replied to the wrong person - meitham was the one
complaining about the gmail interface.
I hope you don't mind me cc-ing the list, because it kind of illustrates my
point. ;)

I sent my initial message from a client that had both reply and reply-all
buttons side-by-side, so when beginning my reply I made a decision about
where it should go. Except the reply-to settings on the list meant that
both buttons actually do the same thing. That seems unnecessarily confusing
- nothing to do with correctness.

Similarly, due to those settings, when Walter wanted to send a private
(even though perfectly polite) message to meitham, he accidentally sent it
to me instead.

Anyway, like Oli said, this isn't the kind of thing where people are likely
to change their minds. And it's really not a big deal either way. I guess I
just won't laugh so hard at the next recruiter who does it. And maybe
that's a worthwhile lesson right there. Aren't we all people? Don't we all
love, and die, and eat, and poop?

I love you guys.
