Just because I did not voice an opinion does not mean that I agree with the current practice. It is more of not wanting to send "me too" emails to the list. I believe sending replies to the list is the norm and personal replies is the exception. And email headers should reflect that, i.e. Reply-To: squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx should be in the list email headers. -- Eray
