Hi Karl I understand what you are saying but in the same way that you don't optimise your gear for how it feels out of the water, the list should be configured for list use, not personal mails. In the instance that you do need to send a private mail, it's only a matter of swiping the email address off the header and pasting into the new message. I find that setup much simpler than dicking around with editing fileds or needlessly doubling server traffic by using Reply All.
