To me it's very simple: If you want to read people's replies, subscribe,
otherwise don't. So obviously the original poster in this case either
didn't want to read any replies OR she prefers to search the archives for
them. Anyway, that's up to her, not to us. If it was meant to be our
problem, this list would be designed differently, clearly pointing out, in
the message, not hidden in any kind of way, that this is written by someone
who isn't subscribed. Clearly this isn't the case, so we shouldn't need to
lift a finger to get that information.

I agree to that one, though.
