6. "Reply To" pointing to the list is the norm on the handful of lists I'm on and every one I've ever been on. I've never heard a criticism of this configuration and there is rarely any complaining about responding directly, as opposed to this list where it is a daily occurrance.
It's good to hear other opinions. I think this discussion is long overdue.

Absolutely. I'm certainly not a newbie to mailing lists - been subscribed to one or another since first starting to use the net in early 1996. This is the very first I have ever known - despite somebody stating that it is standard practise (really?) - where sending a reply ends up with it going to last poster only. This then denies the rest of the thread followers the possible solution to the original problem. -- Take care. Kevan Farmer 34 Hill Street Cheslyn Hay Staffordshire WS6 7HR
