I really wish you gripers would get a fscking life and understand that people need to be given the space to learn. This is a SUPPORT list - give people a hard time about something basically irrelevant like pedantic list protocol is only going to turn them away. Yes, let them know how they should behave, but don't take it to heart.
When I signed up for this list, I got the impression that while it was a support list, that due to a general lack of English lists, this one was also a sort of general discussion list too. Also, is it intended to be a private reply list, where only the original poster gets the answer? Or is it supposed to be a means of sharing info with others, so that the same question doesn't have to be asked repeatedly? If the first, by all means continue with the present method. However, if you want the solutions to be disseminated widely, then reply to the list should be automatic and not require extra steps. As for mail programs, I use one I'm happy with. It does not have reply to list. Am I supposed to change mail programs, just for this one list that behaves in this manner? That's beginning to sound a lot like the MS way, where they tell you what you want.
