I think this is the most pertinent point. This is a public list to
which anyone can post, subscribed or not. (See our recent spam message
as proof)

If a non-subscriber posts a question to the list, the first person who
replies cuts the OP from the circulation and that thread continues and
the information that the OP requires is eventually posted then the OP
will never know.

Just hit Reply All and have done with it!
