I always consciously know whether a post is appropriate for the list or
for an individual, and set up my headers appropriately (except when I am
in a big hurry and don't think things through). I don't think that

*social* principle of sharing instead of hoarding information. Anyhow,
the call is yours. Here's a reference that may or may not help you to
decide:
