The two wishes are not possible with internet mail. Products like Exchange
can accomplish this because their "aliases" are on the server and can be
resolved along with the originating email address.

As it is now, the reply all will send a message to the sender and to the
list. Since Letterrip can't attempt to leave out the person being replied
to, that person will receive a duplicate message.

Now, there are some clients that allow you to choose to reply to the sender
only without going to the list and have replies not be duplicated back to
the sender. Entourage for one, has a "Reply to Sender" function that allows
this. In that case though, both the reply and reply all functions will go
back to the list.
