I agree! Since the "From:" line was changed, any replies go to the
author, not the list. Also, in my mail package (elm on Unix), I used to be
able to save the note to the folder "vectorlist". Now, it tries to save
it to a folder with the sender's name. I have to manually type "vectorlist".

I would rather have the old behavior too....

PS: Al's note came out with an incomplete From: line causing my system to
append the default domain to the address.
