Oh, sorry about that. This is a good example of the advantage of switching, though: your message and my reply (this one) could have been done off-list. I don't care what happens to the format of the list, but I am just saying that it is a prime example. <smile 


Have a great day,
Alex

Actually, the BN says "reply to the sender only?" The change
would be that saying "yes" sends your reply to the sender, while
saying "no" replies to the entire list. You could think of that
prompt as "reply to the author of this message only?"



Have a great day,

I hope I'm not out of turn to say this,as I think I have missed

parts

of this conversation. If I'm correct, it sounds like a discussion

on

whether to include an option of whether we can reply straight to

the

author of the message or to leave it as is where replies come

straight

to the list.
I would like to see the list stay as x is. I do a lot of email on

my

BrailleNote. If if p use their BN's a lot, they will know that

email

isn't easy until things change. Right now, I can press reply and

my

message is available for all to see. If things change, when I

press

reply, what I meant for the entire list will not get there

without

adding address in the CC field.
These are just my thoughts. Take care.

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.
