I know a number of people who do that. When you don't have an "address book" or an alias list, that's basically what folks end up doing. And it's easier to reply than to transcribe or cut-and-paste the address. Now that most MUAs seem to have an 'address book' feature, so it's down to a matter of teaching folks to use it. > But that doesn't matter so much, since it's a two person thing, and > we're friends.
