Re[2]: New list Serve Approach
Greetings, all.
Actually, the "normal" way is for the mailer (read, more work for
Kendrick) to identify the sender/address in the leading line.
My mailer does not support tag lines...if I want a tag, I gotta type
it--every time. That's why I don't bother. Also, this suggestion
harkens back to the "well, my mailer will handle it so stop griping"
comments we were getting a couple of weeks ago. (Not that I'm accusing
anyone of that, just remember everybody is limited in some way with
regard to their email.)
I have to agree with Talia. I prefer it the way it was. And I can't
say I buy the "it's supposed to be public" theme. Easily 30-40% of the
messages we get are for individual queries. Before, one person got 20
responses; now, everyone will get 20 responses.
Frankly, this approach is inviting the explosion we saw a couple of
weeks ago.
I prefer the old approach but I could live with the new one as long as
it starts putting the sender in the post so that I have something to
work with.
Regards,
Tadhg
