Guest guest Posted December 21, 1999 Report Share Posted December 21, 1999 I like it set where I can reply to the individual only if I choose. There is some information that just doesn't need to clutter the list (like if I want to congratulate someone on something they did or thank them for info- that needs to go to them personally, only.) Just my opinion. Beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therefore it's set to go back to the person. All I do is if I want it to go to the list, I pop my address book up and click on Toiletries and click on send to and it puts a comma inbetween the person you are replying to and the toiletries address you just put in. But really all you need to do is if you want to send it to the list instead, just replace the address with the list address. Really it just takes a bit of forethought before sending the message- that's all... HTH explain things! Love and hugs, Kelli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 21, 1999 Report Share Posted December 21, 1999 What you need to do is click on " Reply All " ...That will send it to the whole list. You may want to delete the individual's address that also shows up there ( the one who you are replying to) so that person doesn't get duplicate messages.

I agree with - I know I'd like to see the replies go automatically to the list, but I'd let decide what's best for us :-) What we could do, if the current settings are preserved, is pick the " Reply to all " option in our mailers, which would create a message both to the list and to the original sender... Thanks again, , for all you're doing for us! :-) marina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 21, 1999 Report Share Posted December 21, 1999 I agree, I'm on allot of list and getting through the e-mails and digest is time consuming. Some things need to be done privately in the interest of time, something I don't have tons of. Me to, Just my opinion Merry Christmas to All of the wonderful, helpful folks on this list.

HTH explain things! >> Oh, I understood how it works - just when you are on 5 other lists that when you hit reply it goes *to the list* (I do know when to change it to a personal reply that is not list appropriate...) then it is annoying when one list out of all is set to go to the individual. And I know (since when I post I get replies that are addressed to the list as a whole) that I am not the only person that finds it annoying. I am just used to hitting reply and it going to the whole list. It is the " norm " . I do go up there & change it to a personal post when it needs to be - it is backwards for me though to have to change it to a list post every time. I am just having one of those days when I have to stand up & say " this bugs me " for the sake of all the others that it bugs but they are too shy to say it themselves. Must be the full moon... But super-techno-savvy, I knew how to remedy it myself. Thanks though - I am sure there are a lot of others that benefitted from it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 22, 1999 Report Share Posted December 22, 1999 Actually I prefer private setting for reply...that way I know I am posting to everyone by hitting " reply to all " Other lists in which replies automatically went to the list seemed to have inappropriate things slip through on a regular basis. Just my thoughts. Stacey Pampering yourself doesn't have to cost a fortune....... www.soapquarry.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I set up to be on digest mode and for some reason I was still receiving individual postings. This has be quite upset! I certainly hope the list owner is not changing our individual settings we have chosen for ourselves. Because I get a high volume of email here and I do not want to be on individual postings.

I only joined the list a couple of days before the move, and I thought I had read all the rules for posting. I don't remember this, and I was wondering if you (or anyone that knows) would explain what we should not post here--can we share supplier names and ect, or is everything that has to do with suppliers supposed to be sent privately? I just don't want to mess up in my posting! Thanks, Celeste " The most beautiful makeup on a woman is passion, but cosmetics are easier to buy.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 1999 Report Share Posted December 22, 1999 I just wanted to thank everyone who wrote to the list or me privatly with what should and shouldn't be posted with regaurds to suppliers. I think I understand--if not, I'll know soon enough! *G* Thank you everyone, Celeste " There must be quite a few things a hot bath won't cure, but I don't know many of them.
