Briefly, here could be a solution to us inadvertently posting what should be private replies to our whole list: Can listproc on the U. of Wash. server be set so that the "Reply to:" field defaults to original poster and not to ClassicCmp? For example, Majordomo software running on a server handling a different list I am a member of is set this way. Therefore a reply will go to the previous sender in a msg thread. If the message is to go to the whole list then we simply type the "r-390(a)qth.net" address into either the "To:" or "CC:" field. Works very well it seems. FYI: 'R-390' is the military nomenclature of a high performance military surplus shortwave receiver that is truly a "classic" as far as its owners are concerned. I would even wager that Wm. Donzelli may have one too. As the reasoning that the message should always go to the list, we should just remember to specify the ClassicCmp addr. in the "To:" or "CC:" field. If we do not see a msg we intended for the list come up in our own email Inbox later then we know that we accidentally forgot and then have the option of reconsidering sending it to the whole list. This will help keep personal stuff such as discussing a deal to buy/sell something from the rest of the world --or those flames that get thrown around which nobody here appreciates. I'm still waiting for M$ s/w that works well. Whatever happened to Bill Whitson anyway?
