I just tried it and the context menu came up with 5 items; one item was "New email" and the others were things like copy, Add to VIP, etc. I don't think any of these options will enable replying to the original thread. I could be wrong though. If so, then we may need to settle for copying the original address and then do a normal reply and paste in.
I think some of these issues are caused by the way the email list is configured. On Sep 28, 2012, at 2:39 PM, Ray Foret Jr <[email protected]> wrote: > Wait, just a second here.
