As a relatively-new contributor to this list (read: under 2
years), I realize that I have no business requesting a change, but
I'll breech etiquette and hope for the best.
Can we update the filters on the list to have the reply-to address
header marked to the php-general address? The reason I ask this is
because, when people are on vacation (such as Juan is now), we receive
responses to our personal addresses. Secondly, we have to continually
"Reply All" the messages, which - though it's not a problem - can
cause issues when attempting to respond to those "[URGENT]" replies.
Third, our addresses are included in gmane, et al, which is an
inherent risk --- I understand.
Maybe it's just the ramblings of someone attempting to read and
type on a limited-bandwidth mobile device while bored due to delays in
mass-transit facilities (here, read: I'm fucking exhausted, and yes, I
dropped the "F" bomb). In either case, it's not conducive to a new
contributor to have to weed through "vacation response" messages each
time he/she replies to the list.
