I agree with you here. Even if it's "different" than the way most of your other lists work, "Poster" simply makes more sense. And I don't think another way should be picked because the poster might do the wrong thing. I think it's up to all of us to reply to the list as appropriate.<div>
<br></div><div>For me, If I'm reading a message from a specific person, and I hit "reply" I'm replying to that person. If I hit "reply to all" I'm replying to everyone. This just makes sense to me.</div>
<div><br></div><div>And if you set to "The List", it's very hard to reply to the poster. Since neither reply to reply-all will get you the email of the poster.</div><div>-Brett</div><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

</div>"The List" is a worse choice than "Poster" because it limits my choice of whom<br>
I want to reply to and makes it more complicated to reply to the sender alone.<br>
When using "The List", if I want to reply to the sender alone, I need to<br>
employ manual copy/paste of his address, after I manually delete the list<br>
address which was automatically added when replying. This is awkward and<br>
annoying.<br>
<br>
With "Poster", I can easily use reply, to reply to the sender alone, or "reply<br>
all" to send to both the poster and the list and the list will make sure the<br>
poster will receive a single copy anyway.<br>
<br>
I don't think nowadays it could be an issue to anyone, as I can't imagine a<br>
mail user agent without a "Reply all" function.<br>
