It might just be the case that individuals don't know how to reply just to
the sender.  In Outlook Express, hitting "Reply" will send the mail to the
list.  One must hit "New", then manually enter the sender's address in order
to post to the individual only.  There is documentation in the "Help"
section of Outlook which explains this process.

While I am not technically savvy, I do participate in a number of lists, and
this is a fairly common problem more related to a limited understanding of
how e-mail applications and list-serves work rather than an individual
disregard for net etiquette.

Good Day.  vnj
