I believe the whole issue will never have a real winner, |
30 |
there's only two standpoints with nothing in between. |
31 |
Both points have their pro's and con's. |
32 |
|
33 |
Personally, I'd go with disabling munging because it is |
34 |
more consistent with discussions via mail aliases. |
35 |
I always click "reply to all" because often mail I got |
36 |
went CC to someone else, too and I want her/him to see |
37 |
my reply. |
38 |
And sometimes I just want to send a short private notice |
39 |
in reply to someone on a mailing list. Then I really |
40 |
like the "reply to sender" way of the reply button. |
41 |
|
42 |
But that's just me. |
