[TowerTalk] Replying to the list...AGAIN!

[Keith Dutson]

I am admin for three lists.  I did the democracy thing and asked the posters
how they wanted the list set up.  They voted and I followed their advice.
Simple.

I'm familiar with the MAILMAN software that runs this list. I administer
seven Ham Radio lists that use this software. The default and recommended
setting is REPLY TO POSTER.

"Poster is strongly recommended for most mailing lists."

No matter the setting, subscribers are free to POST TO THE LIST or REPLY TO
THE POSTER ONLY.

Under the present configuration, if you want to reply to the list, use REPLY
TO ALL on your e-mail client. If you want to reply only to the poster,
simply use REPLY on your e-mail client. Simple.

Even if the list's software is set as REPLY TO ALL, it doesn't obligate a
sender to do so. I think that the subscribers of Tower Talk are fully
capable of understanding this and able to take appropriate action.

BTW, all of my lists use the default and recommended setting of REPLY TO
POSTER.
