Nope, mutt uses M-F-T even when composing a message addressed to a known mailing list (either via the "lists" ir "subscribe" .muttrc statements). That is to say that replying to a message with 'L' is not necessary for M-F-T to be inserted; it gets inserted all the time when composing a message with 'm'. The list-reply function is used to generate a reply to the mailing list, honoring the author's M-F-T header if it is found and honor_followup_to is set (which it is by default, and I can't imagine why anyone would disable it -- it would be pretty rude). This differs from group-reply only in that it ensures that a reply is sent to the list, even when M-F-T doesn't include the list address. (It also sends to all recipients specified in M-F-T; it just includes the list as well if it was omitted.) good times, Vineet -- http://www.doorstop.net/ -- "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." --Benjamin Franklin
