    Either your MUA doesn't comply to the standards and ignored the
    reply-to (which was set to the list) or you yourself deliberately
    ignored that, as I received a copy as private mail.

    Pray tell what standard? Lotus Notes for sure isn't one. But instead
    there are standards like the RFC mentioned in this thread.

    >he should just not read these emails.

    Wow, you send me a copy as private mail and shy away from answering me
    directly. That truly deserves a *PLONK*

    >enough examples of why writing first makes sense,

    To those that deliberately ignore existing guidelines and RFCs, yes.

    >I don't have to add any.

    Do what you like, my killfile just got another entry.
