Re: debian-user and mutt...

Thanks Ken, hendrik and all the others that offered
suggestions.

I couldn't add the 'set honor_follow_up_to=yes' because it doesn't
seem to be recognised in my version of mutt, but the rest were
ok.

If this posting went to the right place, then it worked..

In addition to activating the 'L' command, it also seems to
add an 'L' flag to the message listings, which is nice.

My remaining grip is that the 'subscribe' command also causes the
identification of the originator of the message to be replaced by
the list name in the display:
   1183   L Feb 09 To debian-user@ (  46) debian-user and mutt...
   1184 r L Feb 09 To debian-user@ (  38) Re: debian-user and mutt...
   1188  sL Feb 09 To debian-user@ (  67) Re: debian-user and mutt...
   1190  sL Feb 09 To debian-user@ (  47) Re: debian-user and mutt...
   1193 O L Feb 09 To debian-user@ (  70) Re: debian-user and mutt...

which I would rather was controlled separately because I think it was
useful to be able to see the authors when deciding which messages to
read...

But I am still reading through your link so maybe there is a solution
in there somewhere...

Thanks again,
DigbyT
