Re: [PHP] Rules of Engagement

gmail seems to consume these 'double replies' transparently w/ its
'conversations'.

i never notice them :)

sorry to everyone who gets hit w/ the extra mail when i hit reply-to-all.

youll have to forgive my laziness, its just easier that way.

Can we update the filters on the list to have the reply-to address
header marked to the php-general address?

At the risk of extending the religious war ....

I'm with you Daniel, but I think it has been decided that what we ACTUALLY
need is a fix at the reception end. Some email clients will allow you to
set a
reply address for a folder ( apparently ) which is actually what *I* could
do
with, so all [PHP] email goes in the php-general folder, and when I hit
reply
I get a list reply address, just like I get a news list address on news
folders. Unfortunately the other religious war erupts when you ask for
that at
the client end and many of the same people who INSIST that replies should
be
changed to be private then insist that its not appropriate to allow the
client
end to change them back :(

So until SeaMonkey adds the facility to set a folder reply address I'm
stuck
like you with remembering to hit 'reply all' on the relatively few lists
that
still work the old school way ;) Actually rather than doing that I TRY to
be
nice and replace the private reply address with the list address - so I
don't
get those duplicate replies that are not getting filtered out when someone
'reply alls' my posts ;)
