>You have adsl and you are worried bout a 2k message stealing bandwidth??

My atention bandwidth is a lot more limited than my computer's bandwidth.
And it pisses me off when I write a reply to the personal mail, only to
find the list copy of the email turning up seconds later.

I confess that I sometimes send both to the list and to the person. This
happens because of !@#@#$%$^ list software that puts the Reply-to as the
author not the list, and I almost always want to reply to the list but
sometimes forget to change it the first time (and then ten minutes later
wonder why my message hasn't turned up on the list).
