Reply-To field is message author's suggestion (not a request) where replies be sent. (See RFC 5322 or older 2822.) With Reply-To you certainly can suggest that people send replies to a mailing list or any other place. Other people can treat such suggestions any way they want. None of these are "broken"; they are valid behaviour (as in RFC). I think that I made service to you by telling how Notmuch's "reply to sender" (notmuch reply --reply-to=sender) interprets Reply-To in replies. Maybe some other mail user agents have similar interpretation. That is perfectly valid interpretation and behaviour. This could help you understand why you sometimes get private replies. -- /// Teemu Likonen - .-.. https://www.iki.fi/tlikonen/ // OpenPGP: 4E1055DC84E9DFF613D78557719D69D324539450
