I just forwarded 5 posts about '... mentally ill community member' to the list because the original message was sent to many recipients including cohousing-L. (The four replies from people who were some of the additional recipients went to all original recipients including the list.) Having many recipients on list posts has two undesireable consequences so please dont do it. First the listserv software considers many recipients as an indicator that it may be spam and holds the message for me to look over. Second all the additional recipients addresses can be seen by all recipients which I consider bad form. (IMHO, the latter applies to mailings to messages to many recipients wheter the list is one of them or not.) Fred, listserv manager -- Fred H.
