This is a side question...

Every time I reply to a message from the AppleScript-Users list or AppleScript-Studio list, I must copy and paste the list address into the To: field, replacing the author's address. This isn't how I expect a mailing list to work. How do you folk (who use Mail) go about this unnecessary step? Thanks for any help.

Please reply off-list.

Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

Hi Ted: everyone asks this question. This list is set up this way for some reason, so that many list members interested in expert answers to questions often miss out on them. I too would prefer that the answers were posted directly to the list rather than to the questioner only.

To get an answer to the list as well as to the questioner, you have to "Reply to All". To do this in Eudora hold down the Option key when pressing the Reply key. The questioner will get two answer emails unless you remember to delete his/her name, but at least the answer has gone to the list.

If you receive a digest you will reply directly to the list, as it is difficult even for Apple to get you to reply to the individual questioners within digests.
