PPS: how should I behave on this list: should I systematically
"reply to all", or just "reply" to the list? I'm used to a number
of mailing lists where a simple "reply" automatically replies to
the list, and the rule obliges you to **only** use "reply".
Thunderbird offers me both 'reply' and 'reply list' buttons for the
messages on this list.
most of the lists I'm on, a simple reply IS a reply list, as they
wish to encourage discussions rather than private responses. I
personally dislike 'reply all' as I'm ON the list so why send me
another CC ?

And in settings check:

Select this if you do not want two copies when someone sends a
message both to you and to the list.
It lets me distinguish between the list threads that I haven't responded
to and those that I have.
From observation pretty much everyone here uses reply-to-all...I
suspect for a similar reason.
Also if the mail server is down or overloaded(a less frequent occurrence
these days) you can carry on a conversation while the server catches up.
