The "problem" I have with the current setup is that unless you modify the addressee list after reply-all, the person whose post you reply to gets the response twice. Once personally and once as a subscriber to the Oracle-L list. It just adds to the flood of e-mail.
Shouldn't we be environmentally friendly and conserve electrons. (Eventually the energy required has to be generated somehow somewhere).
