Sorry about that. Got carried away. Anyway ...
I'm using the bleeding-edge -claws version. In sylpheed-claws I see
three buttons for Reply, Sender, All (the dreaded reply all) which are
roughly the same sending options I see in mutt (though admittedly I'm a
mutt newbie).
My tests reveal that hitting:
Reply -> To: debian-user@lists.debian.org
Sender -> To: "Eric G. Miller" <egm2@jps.net>
All -> To: debian-user@lists.debian.org, Cc: egm2@jps.net
If you want a further test, reply to me and Cc: to the list. I believe
Sylpheed's Reply button is intelligent enough to discriminate.
