And that at times includes me. kmail isn't sending that header, but in
the folder menu, under properties there is a checkbox "folder holds
mailing list" and if its checked, then the reply button seems to have
been converted to a reply-to-list button, so I get the same thing
regardless of which button I click on, _in this folder_ only. So I've
learned something after all. The bottom line to this is that I agree re
NG, he and his install of mutt seems to be the odd email agent out, and
he should change to a newer, more intelligent email agent. Same with
the Imail user a few msgs up, its time to switch, or file a bug report
against it.
