Re: [xri] mailing list settings

What Drummond said. :-)  Most people (I guess depending on the set you  
ask) prefer that reply go to a single individual and that reply-all go  
to the list. It just makes grammatical sense that way. If reply went  
to the list, would reply-all go to the individual? Or would you  
somehow have to hand-craft the to field to reply to just the sender?
