* [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [2007-11-28 14:11]:
P.S. Off topic question: how come this mailing list doesn't put the
mailinglist email in the reply-to header? I have now emailed the
person I'm anwering, instead of emailing the list, two times in this
discussion because of this. D.S.
RFC 2822: 'When the "Reply-To:" field is present, it indicates the
mailbox(es) to which the author of the message suggests that replies
be sent.'
'list software is not "the author of the message"' --
Well, I would say that for a mailinglist I, as the author, would
accept that the mailinglist adds/modifies this header to make the
message more mailinglist friendly.
Maybe it's just me, but I actually regard the *mailinglist* as the
"author". I mean, it is responsible for mailing out copies of my
email, so it is the author of these copies. It is just as if the
mailinglist was a real person, that manually copy-pastes all test from
all incomming mails, and sends out them as new emails to all list
subscribers.

I agree with many of the arguments. But I was not aware that my email
client (Horde webmail) was broken. All I know is that need to manually
change to To field each time I reply to a message on this mailinglist.
