[Air-L] (advice sought) Public safety and configuration of list

[live]

   Additionally, sending one email to multiple lists is uncouth.
   Send separate emails and apologize for crossposting if you must.

     Please don't reply-all on private mail (what this appears to be -

     mails did not go to Air-L), and then include lists in the CC line.

     It's unethical and just makes other list members very, very cranky.
      As

     does any thread that suggests changing the reply-to bit on any list.

     That aside - this ought to be a dead issue.  Don't use mailing lists
     with

     archives for private or might-need-to-be-private correspondence that
     might

     endanger lives or well-being of others.  The information *will*
     leak.  In

     fact - I would suggest not using mail for this sort of issue at all,

     regardless of whether it's a list or has archives or not.  The trail
     of

     cleartext bits and routing information is too easily exploited.
