Hi Geoffrey,
I'm afraid I have to disagree with you here. What Didier probably should have
done was post the original to both .general and .off-topic.geek but it is up to
the original poster to set the FUT with consideration to where the responses
should go.
The responded can always read the followup-to settings in their newsbrowser and
should double check to see that it is going where they would like it to go (if
this differs from the original poster). I believe that the mistake about double
posting and not seeing resposnses is yours. Either way the onus is on the first
poster to make sure they are set appropriately AND the responders to make sure
they know where it's going.
