I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "address field" here, but you can left-click on any email address in the message, including the ones in the headers, and Evo will open up a reply to that address. You can also right-click on any address and choose "Send message to..." > * will Evolution identify the messages of the same ID? (probably > not) It doesn't seem so, which is unfortunate. Maybe with the new sqlite-based caches this is something Evo could do. However, this is becoming less critical as email servers like mailman have the ability to do this cleanup themselves at the server side: they won't send emails to list addresses that already appear "broken out" on the To or CC lines. This list doesn't seem to be configured this way which is odd. > * does Evolution handle the "List-Post:" header? (I don't know, > hopefully yes) I believe Evo has a full suite of support for all the List-* headers. See the "Message -> Mailing List" menu. And, C-l is a shortcut for "Reply to List" which I'm pretty sure uses List-Post:. _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
