I agree (but I always agree with Bert!)

Cheers,

Well, 
I 
for 
one 
find 
it 
less 
embarrassing 
to 
send 
to 
someone  
privately 
what 
was 
intended 
for 
the 
list 
(a 
mistake 
which 
can 
be  
easily 
corrected), 
compared 
to 
sending 
to 
the 
list 
which 
was 
meant  
privately 
(since 
it 
is 
out, 
you 
cannot 
take 
it 
back). 
This 
and 
other  
arguments 
are 
discussed 
at:

http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html

So 
IMHO 
the 
current 
setting 
is 
exactly 
right.

So 
now 
would
