Honestly?
The old setting is the expected behavior of mailing lists and I don't think it makes sense to
change it just because one e-mail provider wants us to. AOL users can always use another
e-mail, there are lots of them - most are free and better than AOL anyways.
I wonder how many replies we lost because of this...

It's no big deal for me. At work, I routinely received emails with folks copied.
By default I almost always replied all, and often deleted or added who was
copied. It's almost automatic for me, and no problem.

Hi Stefan,
Recently I moved to a new server "in the cloud". I did this because of
the space, heat, noise, and electrical costs were uncomfortable to bear.
As a result, I've been dealing with various ISP's anti-spam efforts. One
of the problems encountered was that AOL insists that mail lists have
reply-to be the original sender rather than the list. I agree with you,
it seems stupid and arrogant on their part. I don't see how this would
stop spam either.
It's been a while with this "feature" implemented. Now might be a good
time for others to comment on their feelings.
I had an idea of a work around which involves two lists, a tesla-front and
a tesla list. AOL subscribers would subscribe to both and post to tesla.
Tesla wouldn't send them email but would send to the tesla-front list
which would then send to AOL subscribers. Still pondering this idea.
