Amazing!
I don't know how the other list doesn't collapse using reply-to field jajajajajajajajajajajajaja
I said "religious" because I meant that people have strong opinions about which style they prefer, and are not going to change them because others argue for the other style. I didn't say (or imply) that those who disagree with me are wrong / evil / stupid. I *did* say that this list is run according to the "no-munging" rules, and that it was a deliberate choice, not subject to debate.
What wonders me more is how belligerent some in this list are with this question
I don't see how my reply can be considered belligerent. Patrick asked "why doesn't the list munge 'Reply-To'?", and I replied with a link to an explanation, along with a statement that arguing the question would not be fruitful.
You cause the problem,
If you had actually read the link I sent, you would have learned about the problems caused by munging 'Reply-To'. I have participated in *lots* of mailing lists since the early nineties: those which do munge the header are more painful, and routinely have "oops, that was supposed to be a private reply" messages show up. The damage from such messages is *much* higher than the occasional "forget to CC the list" stuff on non-munging lists. Again, this is *opinion,* shared by lots of mailing list maangers / users, but certainly not by all.
at least try to don't threaten us with ban us if we send you private messages by mistake
I don't know what you are talking about here: I didn't threaten to ban anybody. I generally ask (politely) that people keep their replies on-list, and assume that the occasional off-list reply is an honest mistake. I *have* set up filters (in my own mail processing) dropping messages from a couple of users who persist in sending me private mail after being asked to keep the traffic on the list.
This kind of things are to don't take you seriously, sorry, but this cause a very bad impression of the people of this list
I'm sorry you feel that way.
