[linux-lvm] Mailing list

May I suggest that the "reply to" address be the mailing list instead of the
sender?
At the moment, when you reply, it's to the sender so, if you don't pay
attention, the thread is no more sent to everybody in the list.
Comments?

Some thoughts:

OTOH that's why mail programs usually implement a reply and a
"reply all" or "group reply". If the reply-to does not point to
the list this allows a participant more easy control.
In addition, some mailer tend to hide the sender address so it
is not that easy to respond privatly.

That said, i personally don't disagree with this request.
Any differing opinions or strong feelings about this?
