The difference is that with reply-to-list, you need to manually find the sender email address and then copy that to the to field, if you would like to have a personal reply. With reply-to-sender, you can either choose to reply or reply-all, it is built into the interface. It is just a matter of choosing where to click. Goba Eric Crump wrote:
Darrel,
It's a legitimate request, the fervor of the opposition notwithstanding. I've managed discussion lists since 1991 and have always used reply-to-list as the default. It works fine. Civilization has not crumbled. It's not appropriate in all cases. Neither is reply-to-sender infinitely superior, as some do claim. As long as subscribers know how the list works, either setting can work perfectly well.
