Thanks for the confession and explanation Bruce
I've done the same thing and was quite surprised when a message
I thought went just to one person ended up going to the entire CT list.
A big oops.
What may seem to be a cultural issue could be more based in technology
than we assumed.
Warmly
Harrison

Subject: [ConstellationTalk] Problem with inappropriate private postings - Some
analysis of my own doing that
Hi everyone,
Well, I may have just done the same thing that others have done. If so, my
apologies.
It is a function of the email auto-address
When we type in a person's name who has posted in Constellations Talk, the
Yahoo Group can take it and make it go to the entire group.
I typed in someone's name.
.... my email in the Yahoo compose line said "someone@xxxxxxxxx"
BUT, when I hit SEND, what happened is that it put that in as
"'Someone@xxxxxxxxx' VIA ConstellationTalk@xxxxxxxxx"
I have NO idea how to prevent this - I tend to be incredibly sensitive about
what I send and to whom. I looked at it, and it looked great, but it was from
my autofill entry, which many of us have.....
I remember that others have had this same problem.
The only solutions I see are moderation, or toleration.
I am fine with either, actually prefer moderation, to be honest. I get tons of
emails...
Sorry to have participated in the trouble, and hoping to be part of a solution,
Bruce
