I don't agree. I think when you hit reply to, it should reply back to where the message originated from (in the case of mailing lists, I should be replying to the list, not the individual to first propogate the message).

Will do.

You need a better MUA.
Yeah yeah yeah. I'm really tired of the "you need a better OS" (WinXP only 'cause I haven't fixed my problem with the fs on my Linux box) and the "you need a better MUA" comments. We each use what we like. I LOVE Mozilla for mail and Pan for newsgroups. Both handle what I need them for exceptionally well (although when retrieving more then 5K headers from ng's with Pan, the system begins to lag).
