I want to send a msg to the 40-something members on the reflector. I simply send it to <a href="mailto:lcc@louisianacontestclub.org">lcc@louisianacontestclub.org</a>, and they all get it. Now if you want to comment, reply, etc., you hit <reply all> and it goes to me <b><i>and back to the reflector </i></b>(ie everyone who got the first message). This is buried in the instructions, somewhere, but once you use it a couple of times, it becomes second nature.<br><br>or<br><br>2. I want to send to the 40 something members, so I individually list you, and Scott, and Steve, and several others PLUS <a href="mailto:lcc@louisianacontestclub.org">lcc@louisianacontestclub.org</a>. This time the individual listee's get the message direct, but the reflector tags it as spam and kicks it to the administrator. Now after getting a daily nasty-gram from the reflector that something is odd, I log on and not knowing who all got it individually, go ahead and approve the message, which then goes to everyone on the reflector. Those who got the direct messages now have two copies, and those not on the "direct list" are a day or two late getting the message. Now, if you hit <reply all> those on the reflector get a copy, and all those listed individually get TWO copies (direct and through the reflector). <br><br> To me, though certainly not flawless, #1 is far simpler. This is why I really push for everybody to be on the club reflector. <b>NOTE:</b> I was able to find a function regarding number of addresses in the "TO:" field and bump it up. If anyone starts getting too many duplicate messages, I can always change it back - just let me know.<br><br>73,<br>Mark, K5ER<br>------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br>At 07:19 PM 7/22/2013 -0500, Charles Morrison wrote:<br><br><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Mark,<br><br>Of course there are always exceptions, but I can say on my part, that the<br>reflector software (or current configuration) is counter intuitive and<br>contributes to the occurrence of the multiple addresses on replies. <br><br>The way it currently works, your message appears from you, to the LCC,<br>however, replies without "replying all" (thus numerous addresses) go back<br>direct to you as the originator of the message. <br><br>So basically, replies to posts on the reflector don't go back to the<br>reflector by default, they go back to the original sender.
