Good point -- I'm sort of a lurker on this and some other xfree86 lists but I 
have responded to a few questions -- I made the (bad) assumption that 
responding to the list got the answer back to the questioner.

My first tack on a problem like this would be to add something like this to 
the footer:

"Respond to the list and to the "questioner" (better word?) -- this is an open 
list and many questioners are not subscribed."  (Or something like that -- 
the shorter, while still being clear to less experienced mail list users, the 
better.)

Randy Kramer (responding only to the list in this case ;-)
