Yep, funny how that happens even to the best of us! :-)

The list can be configured to reply to the public list or to the sender. I
favor the public list since 90% of the time, thats what you want anyway.
That keeps traffic going on the public list, instead of in private. Bottom
line; if you want something to be private, look at your headers before you
send that message off!

As for digests. Its a global option; everyone gets digests or no one
does. I don't really like digests, especially in a low volume list.  I
find I have more time to sneak in reading a single message at a time,
rather than 10 at a time. If the traffic were to ever get so high that we
need digests, well ...

Also, with the email WEB archived you can go back and look at it later
very easily.
