Why was ability to select recipient of a reply removed? And do you have work-arounds?

Suddenly we can no longer select the recipient of our reply and reply privately to a member. After 10 years of using groups, poof, this feature was removed with no warning. Can someone explain what workaround if any, a member can now use if he wants to reply privately to a post? Most large groups keep the member lists private to protect against spam etc.

Also - if you have an opinion about the removal of this great feature please see:
