Hi, Karyl --
I am subscribed to many lists myself, and most of them are set up so that,
when a reply is sent, it is sent to the entire list.
I have responded to quite a few messages on this list, assuming (quite
incorrectly), that my message was going out to the entire list. Instead,
it was sent only to the author of the original message. By the time I
figured out what was going on, my response would no longer have been
timely, and, quite frankly, I no longer had the desire to find my reply in
my "Sent Items" folder, then find the original message, and send the whole
thing out again.
It would, indeed, be much easier, and the list would be far more valuable,
if we were ever able to see some of the solutions to the problems being
presented here. But I've been thinking of just unsubscribing to this list,
as it seems like a place where everyone has problems, but, as far as the
responses are concerned, nobody has a solution to anything.
So, while this list has tremendous potential to help so many people, only
those asking the questions, ever benefit from it.
That's my impression of what otherwise could be one of the best lists to
which I currently subscribe.

Hello all, Gordon brings up a good point when he says, "I could use the
same
information, (step by step) please." There are many very valuable
questions
asked here that lots of us could benefit from the answers. I find it too
bad that I see so many folks denied the information because of how this
list
is set up. The answers don't become part of the archive either because
unless specifically selected, they don't go to the list at large. You
know,
if I don't need the answers I know where my delete key is and can just
delete them without opening.
If anyone wants to comment on this subject, please be sure to use the
reply all feature of your email, so we all can see how others feel about
it.
Maybe the list moderator will see it too.
