surely i have
why?

because i get often enough mails twice as reply
and i can not remember that i configured anything
in a way imply that i want this

register on a mailing-list usually means people
are sending and replying to the list-adress and
that there is no reason for "reply all"

there is no "i want mails twice" setting
so nobody can imply "reply all" is the right action

surely

it is ALWAYS the senders fault if he blindly press "send"
without looking to whom he is sending and consider if
this is intentional

this does not matter

there is nothing to investigate

even if it defaults to "reply all" it is finally controlled
by the human who press "send" which RCPT are there, even
if you press "reply-all" in thunderbird you can control
this before press "send"

i blamed the correct person but you still refuse to understand
how a mailing-list is designed to work - if you want a copy
of messages which are a direct reply to you you are always
free to make this copy in your mailprogram

but you are terrible wrong if you think you have to do
this sort of copy for all other people out there be
deciding to use "reply all"
