Present exceptions, this list doesn't get many of those and I hope that that 
will continue to be the case.  You will still get people who will Reply To 
All to vent or to thank.  (I see this on some lists I'm on.)

Hello Michael and List:

I too would like to see the list with reply to sender going only
to the message author and with reply to all going to the entire
list.  It would cut down on emails with short pointed messages,
such as "thanks" and "good point."

>If you reply to all on this list, two messages will be sent to
the list.  Hence the recent duplicates.  Just do a normal reply
and only one message will be sent.

>We could change the settings so that Reply would be only to the
sender of the message and Reply to All would go to the sender and
the list.  This is the way many lists are set up.  Perhaps this
would reduce list traffic when a message is only relevant for the
person that posted and not for the whole list.

>As long as everyone understands the difference between Reply and
Reply to All, I am leaning toward this way of handling message
replies.
