Correct Ed. Looks like some are confused with a contact group (all
email) and a LISTSERV. Thats not that amazing as it's as hard as tryng
to explain a newsgroup to someone who only knows email and FB.

No Gary, you don't understand the difference here. Ed is 100% point on
as is S Viemeister. You are talking the client end. Ed, VM and I are
talking the other end.

If you use Thunderbird, live mail or anything else, your ONLY choice to
reply to is the LISTSERV address which will be the ONLY 'From' you have
to send a reply to. Now to make it more confusing, not all LISTSERVs
are set to a digest mode, some people set to individual messages and in
that case, it is a blended solution and may be operating a little like
a contact group, but not a true blue LISTSERV. Confused yet? Such
blended types were a YahooGroup approach and many LISTSERVs moved to
Yahoo to exist today.

Goes out to everyone on the list. Probably one of the best known is
EAT-L which has been going strong for some 35 years now.

With Listserv you do not see who the members are either, unless the
person running it chooses to do so. You only reply to one email address
and the serves does the rest, be it 10, 100, 10,000.

If you are not an approved member, your cannot send an email to the list
without it being rejected. Prevents spamming.

It can be, if you have inane friends. I agree about the interface.

The only listserv group I was on was a local one but I set it up as reading
the replies at the group. I wanted no replies directly to my inbox or any
notifications as I visited the group daily, sometimes 2 or 3 times per day.
I was glad that I could control what I received from that group as I wanted
no digest coming directly to me.

Continuing with my corn fritter experiments I have now made a sesame
shrimp corn fritter infused with butter, I must say that was
GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sort of like gluten free shrimp toast which is something I have been
working towards but never could figure out how to achieve.

Thats not a pure LISTSERV as a pure one has no web face to go to, to
read the messages. That was a web group with an adjunce email feature
(aka, Yahoo is like that as is NextDoor).
