I do this to the point where I'll go to reply to my mom or something and hit L 
in kMail...type my reply, hit send, then get a modal telling me I didn't 
specify an email address.  kMail in sid is *really* good about detecting 
mailing lists, even if a bunch of mailing lists share the same folder, 
without any user configuration identifying the lists.  It just automagically 
works.

Set your Reply-To and be aware that this trick doesn't work on mailing lists 
that have been (mis)configured to set a Reply-To.
