Currently both ell-i-pcb-design and ell-i-developers have the freelists default
setting, which is for the list to add a Reply-To: header to the message so that
replies are always sent only to the list.
Now, while his is one way of operating and works ok, I'm more used to lists
where you reply to the sender, and then CC to the list. Hence, I'd like to
change the config of both of these lists accordingly. However, there there is
the potential problem that some people might forget to click "Reply all",
thereby answering only to the sender, leading to some discussions indadvertedly
disappearing from the list. Another problem is that the CC list easily grows,
leading to a situation where many people receive the same messages multiple
times.
In other words, having a reply-to-the-sender-cc-to-the-list requires more
discipline from the list members than the current reply-always-to-the-list-only
practise.
What do people think? Which way would be better?
