Its easy enough to make the change, so why not switch it over and test it
for a month or so and see what everyone thinks. I made the change just now,
so if you simply REPLY to this message, it will go to ALL the members of the
list. If you want to send a private reply, you will need to do a little
cutting-and-pasting.
There are some per-user settings that you can make on your personal
subscription that can reduce getting "duplicates" of message that you send
or reply to. You can make those changes here:
