repetitive messages

Greetings,
This baby with the bathwater concern is certainly valid... accidental to-list replies are sometimes the impetus for great conversation. I am not so distressed by "extra" messages on the list, so I'm happy to see reply-to-list remain the default. I don't think, however, there is one best solution for all lists/groups.

I agree with Jim, wholeheartedly.
We used to have an active Medit-Plants list. Then it was switched so Reply went to the sender, not the list. It all but died. Questions would be posted but we'd seldom see an answer, and there wouldn't be the former back and forth of discussion that had been so enjoyable. The most recent messages were three in July.

a change from "reply to list" to "reply to sender" is at issue, I want to make a strong plea that no such change be made.
