(replying off-list) Got to this page.
I always find it amusing when somebody sends an off-list response to the
list itself.
The problem is that this mailing list has the "reply" option as going
the list address of "pan-users@nongnu.org" and not to the sender.
The sensible choice is your "reply" button in the email client would
reply to the sender, while the "reply list" button would send it to the
list. As it says on the buttons.
But a lot of list admins set it up so reply goes to everyone so that
people who just use reply because (a) they don't know any better, or (b)
because some dumb-ass email client declines to offer them the choice,
still are part of a group discussion.
I find that tedious, as it then means having to cope & paste the email
address, or go to it and right-click then "compose message to" or
whatever, in order to privately reply. But there you go.
