A lot of older text-only terminal-mode mail clients had all kinds of capabilities and programmability to deal with lists. Which is one reason a lot of us don't use the newer GUI-based clients. With an older client you DO get options like "reply to all", "reply to list", and "reply to sender"... EXCEPT when the list is like Compact Macs and overrides the "Reply to" line with its own. :-P -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
