[Gluster-users] Glusterfs over wan?

[Count Zero]

I agree with you, something is wrong with the configuration of this list, specifically.
I have to click "Reply All", then remove the specific person's email address.
If I click just "Reply", it will reply directly to the person, not to the list.

Works fine for me on other lists...
