Yes, there is ("reply-to sender" is, indeed, a list-admin option), but
we chose to use the "reply-to list" option instead. This issue has
been debated multiple times before. (03)
I am attaching a recent exchange of mine with ChrisWelty (on the
[iaoa-member] list) at the bottom of this message which addresses
exactly the same issue. (04)
As open collaboration is a key tenet of the Ontolog community, I hope
you can bear with us. (05)
Thanks & regards. =ppy

Hello Chris, (015)
Your point is well taken. The pros and cons of "reply-to list" vs.
"reply-to sender" almost always come up when a new list goes into
service ... like now. (016)
I believe the "reply-to list" option (which is what we have configured
the [iaoa-member] mailing list to do as a default now) does: (017)
* PRO: promote community interaction and encourage collaboration, but (018)
* CON: require members to be conscious of that default routing (i.e.
if they just hit "reply", their message goes to the entire community),
and be mindful that messages of a private nature should *not* be
routed to the entire list. (019)
Everyone should be conscious of the fact that things that they should
not bother the rest of the community with, should only be sent
personally to the sender (plus others pertinent stakeholders) rather
than to the entire community. Under those circumstances, the sender
needs to adjust the "To:" field and *change* it to replying *only to
the people concerned* and not to the entire list.
[All: please note.] (020)
Since this is a new list, and we have not had a chance to circulate
such a request to everyone before, could you bear with us for a bit
(tell gmail that this is "not spam" for now), and see if things will
settle down nicely, please, Chris? (021)
If we go straight to "reply-to sender" now, I think we will forego a
huge opportunity for IAOA members to interact and collaborate in the
long run. (022)
Best regards. =ppy (023)
