>> Glad that you spotted the change. I'm guilty and changed the behaviour during the HEPSYSMAN meeting when it was pointed out to me that the default behaviour ought to be that a 'reply' goes to the individual and 'reply all' includes the whole list - several replies intended for individuals have gone to the whole list. I was going to leave it unless someone asked. Now that you have asked I need to check what the majority want. So, if you are on this list and have a preference please reply (just to me ;) indicating your preference unless you want to make a wider point for everyone to consider.
