Actually, the "occasional errant personal reply" is my favorite part.

Could you please tell me how to get off this listserv mailing list.  I'm
getting five hundred a day and I CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.  Help me and
I'll give you a million dollars, OK?

Robert,
We went through a similar trial on the records management list and opted to
go back to the reply to list setting.  Most of my replies I WANT to go to
the list.  If I want to reply off-list I'll do that.  The occasional errant
personal reply is no big deal.  I also misdial the telephone.  Whoopee!
Hitting the delete key is not onerous.  I personally think this is a
mistake.  Dick King, University of Arizona.
