I don't think NAFEX works like that; I always just hit Reply. And I 
think it's better this way; if the default is to reply only to the 
individual and not to the list, then many replies will never get seen 
by most on the list, and it would be very hard to get a general 
discussion going; which I thought was what this list was for. -- I was 
once on a list that did seem to work that way; there were almost never 
any posts to the list, and when someone did post, there were rarely any 
replies that I could see. It took me a while to figure out why.
