Why change the way that has been around for years and adopted by multiple e-mail lists? It feels like it's more problem to change the way for thousands of users just to satisfy a couple of few.
David was venting based on a discussion in another thread. I'm pretty sure he knows about the option to reply-all - that's part of the reason for venting (it sends multiple emails instead of just the one needed). The optimal scenario is to: 1) be able to quickly respond to the list, as that's the normal action you want to do and 2) not spam people with several emails for no reason (i.e. avoid replying to the OP AND the list).
Exactly. I also feel bad for those who have to pay to download per Mb, GB, etc. It's pitiful that once I send this E-Mail, Peter and Hans both will get 2 of the exact messages.
I thought you just wanted to know why it is the way it is? Now you're passing judgement. Cheers, Rob. -- http://www.interjinn.com Application and Templating Framework for PHP
