[Free Framers] RE: Change bars for multiple revisions

[Combs, Richard]

But the thread was on the Free Framers list (framers at omsys.com), not
FrameUsers (framers at lists.frameusers.com) -- as is the addressing
annoyance. 

On FrameUsers, Reply All addresses both the sender to whom you're
replying and the list, while Reply addresses only the former. On Free
Framers, Reply and Reply All do exactly the same thing, which strikes me
as counter-intuitive and unhelpful. Like Seonaid, I've more than once
replied just to the sender by accident. This makes the list archives
less useful because many of the questions to the list aren't answered on
the list.
