Re: Mail-list structure was...Re: Just checking

I know the accidental reply to list bug bit frequently and was frustrating,
but I would prefer that problem as opposed to worrying that information
useful or interesting to other parties will accidentally be sent via e-mail
never to be seen by the list.

Subject: Mail-list structure was...Re: VECTOR: Just checking

Well, I took the time to read the background files on my list
(Techtoolslist@flippers.com) and found an interesting reason why it is
recommended NOT to have the "Reply-To" go directly to the list. The author
suggests that the "Reply-To-ALl" is the one to use when replying to the
list, and the Reply-To enables one to reply to the sender without hitting
the group with accidental mail. So...here is the link if anyone is curious
about this:
http://garcon.unicom.com/FAQ/reply-to-harmful.html

I'll post this on my list too...
