thx! not paying enough attention it happened to me too that i hit reply
and sent mail to sender, not to the list, cause reply-to tag pointed to
the sender himself. and the sylpheed feature default_reply_list=1
didn't help, as reply-to "overrides" that. 
but it was like i somehow blindly sent the message w/ o spending the
one second of attention where i sent it :p

cheers!
