I use Eudora also, and it works just fine. To reply to the person who sent
the message, I hit Reply. To reply to that person and the list, I hit
Reply To All. To reply to just the list and not the sender would be rude,
but if I wanted to do it, I'd do Reply To All and delete their name from
the To: line.
