if you use MUTT, reply on-list using 'L' or
off-list (directly to the individual poster) using
'r'...
headers in the message you sent, include
From: Xucaen <xucaen@yahoo.com>
Subject: how to reply to messages
To: debian-user@lists.debian.org
Resent-Message-ID: <4ijHwC.A.AbD.u6jQ6@murphy>
Resent-From: debian-user@lists.debian.org
X-Mailing-List: <debian-user@lists.debian.org> archive/latest/124099
X-Loop: debian-user@lists.debian.org
so mutt's "r" goes to whatever's in the "FROM:" field,
and "L" goes to one of "RESENT-FROM" or "X-MAILING-LIST"
or "X-LOOP". i'm sure the mutt dox tell you which, if
it's important... :) [i'd guess x-mailing-list]
