Thanks much for the reply and confirmation. So it would seem that if I post something to this list and want replies to it to go to the list, all I have to do is include a header which says:

Reply-to: Suse Linux English

If I don't include this header in my post, then I should fully expect that people will reply to me instead of to the list... and I would really have no grounds for complaining about this to them, no call for asking them, "Why did you reply to me? Please reply to the LIST."

Of course you'd be able to tell them that - if they answer to you personally when they actually intended to answer to the list they obvoulsy weren't paying attention to what they were doing or they never bothered to learn how to use their mail program. This is completely independent of the mailing list setup.

Cheerio,

Now, if anybody can tell me how to do this in Gmail I will implement it here. I do not think it is possible though. Unless the option is very well hidden :-) In that case, your complaints need to go to Google , no? Since no one at Suse or Novell would have any input into Gmail.
