In Evolution, it would be better to use "Reply to List" (Ctrl+L) than "Reply to All" (Shift+Ctrl+R). The former will send the reply to the debian-user list. The latter will send the reply to all addresses listed in the "from," "to," "cc," and "Reply-to" fields of the message to which you're replying. *Most* people here prefer not to receive replies off-list, because they get them on the list, and the rule of thumb is to ask for a reply off-list if you're not subscribed. In this case, if I'd done "Reply to all," this message would have been sent to the list, to you separately, and to arijit separately. As it is, using Ctrl+L, this message gets sent only to debian-user. -- Michael M. ++ Portland, OR ++ USA "No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream." --S.
