[gst-devel] Word of caution on using mailing lists

[Edward Hervey]

Hi again,

  I just modified the settings of the mailing-list, it now adds a
'Reply-To' field with the address of the mailing-list.
  This means that if you just hit reply, your mail will only go to the
mailing-list, and if you hit 'reply-all' it will go to the ml AND the
original sender.

  So if you were already using 'reply-all', no changes.

   Edward
