Dragaera

Straw Poll about "Reply-to" (was: Damiano's Lute)

My opinion?  You bet.

Having spent *a lot* of time carefully snipping the individual's name 
and changing the cc: to to: for the dragaera line (so as not to clog 
people's inbox with double-posting), and having *frequently*, when 
traffic is less heavy, mistakenly sent a private msg when I meant to 
send a public one, I (e) HATE the way this list operates.

Furthermore, and this is beyond simple inconvenience, I have no way of 
knowing, when I have a msg from a stranger in my in-box, if it's from 
this list (or another like it), or of it's an obnoxious and possibly 
dangerous piece of spam.  The other kind of list always tells you if a 
msg is *from* the list in the header.  Yes, by now I know lots of people 
on this list, but there's always the newbie and the infrequent poster. 
I would feel much more secure if all the msg headers said Dragaera to 
start off with.

Thanks for asking.  I'll be really curious as to how this comes out.
