Probably the more important issue is the reply to address. As it now stands, if you reply to a message from MOTANEY, it goes to the indidual who posted by default rather than the list. I'd like it a lot better, and it's the more common practice, to have the replies go to the list by default. The way it works now, those on the list often miss out on replies because they only go to the individual who posted. Do you have that option, Vonda? Does anyone else have an opinion on this?

I prefer the option of each reply going to the whole list instead of the individual Linda ----- Original Message ----- From: Mike St. Clair <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, November 28, 2000 10:23 AM Subject: Re: Gina's question > Probably the more important issue is the reply to > address.
