Good advice on trimming, but couldn't this list switch from forcing
the reply-to and start using list-post instead?
In other words, let people use the list-reply or reply-all command
of our email programs when we want to reply to the list. If anyone
wants list-reply to be the usual reply action, they can tell their
email program. If someone's email program does not support mailing
list use properly, then they should consider upgrading or using a
filter in front of it to give the settings that they want.
I have some notes about list-friendly email clients that people have
sent me at http://mjr.towers.org.uk/comp/list-mua.html and Claws Mail
looks like the best at the moment.
List-admin, please don't break everyone else's reply command because
some email programs are deficient.
