This behavior is caused by the option reply_goes_to_list : http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-admin/node11.html (with a link to two somewhat outdated takes on the advantages/drawbacks)<br><br>I would really love to see this setting in the mailing list, as right now I have to think about it each time I write an email, and I have seen it cause a lot of emails answered privately instead of to the list. The debate "munging/not munging" does not really have any meaning now, especially for a list not very technically oriented (sorry, brain-dead software and users won).<br><br>Regarding top/bottom post, I prefer top-posting because I want to see the new content without scrolling the whole discussion, but if anyone feels very strongly about this, I can adapt.<br><br>Regards<br><br>Leyan<br><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Fri, 21 Sep 2012 11:07:33 +0200<br>From: joni8135@gmail.com<br>To: zoltans@geograph.co.za<br>CC: qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org<br>Subject: Re: [Qgis-user] List protocol<br><br>I am using gmail on the web, and there are little strange reply options.

<blockquote class="ecxgmail_quote" style="border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hi,<br>
While we are debating list language, should we not also debate list protocol - like are we a top or bottom posting list?<br>
I tend to post according to the posting style to the message I am responding to.<br>
<br>
If you look at the recent top-post to a "bottom-post" message thread on the Spanish language debate, you'll see what I mean: Three "bottom posts, then all of a sudden a top post that directly references the last (bottom) post.<br>
<br>
It just gets messy, and as this list grows, we should perhaps consider gently but firmly adhering to jointly agreed upon protocols - including of course the famous (to all lists) thread-hijacking topic.<br>
<br>
Regards to all,<br>
