Re: Reply & reply to all on mailing lists.

 
Hi Becky.  I like the way this list works and would appreciate all list
moderators taking up this method.  I believe it should require you to do
something extra to reply to the whole list, like pressing reply to all.
You're right that too many replies are intended for the originator of the
message and don't need to clutter my inbox.  
 
I believe this list to be one of the best ones I currently subscribe to, and
this feature is a large part of that.  The respect we show each other and
staying on topic are two other reasons for my appreciation.  
 
Thx, Albert

Thanks for writing about this issue of reply or reply to all. Like you, my
usual experience with e-mail lists is that ctrl-r replies to the list, and
if I want to write to someone off list, I need to shift-tab till I get to
their name, select it, copy it to the clipboard, and open a new message.
 
I would really prefer for the ctrl-r and shift-ctrl-r keystrokes to work
this same way with vicug-l, because I often forget, and send a reply to one
person when I'd rather reply to the list. 
 
On the other hand, I dislike it intensely when I have to go through a bunch
of msgs that ought to have gone to only the sender and not the entire list.
Is this the reason why this list is set up this way? Or is there some other
command I ought to know about to get my usual commands to work with vicug-l?
 
Thanks.
