As of T-bird 31.4.0 for Ubuntu Linux 12.04 the _default_ behavior is to present a "Reply List" button with a drop-down appendage when the index cursor is located on a list post. The when this tab is clicked, a drop-down drop-down menu is attched to this button presents the above listed options. I determined this empirically by deleting T-bird and my user config for it on one of my VMs and reinstalling it from scratch. Nowhere in the visible UI is "Smart Reply" mentioned, nor is it listed in the preferences menu. This may be a default of the installation rather than of of T-bird itself. > a) is only available on the preview pane header toolbar, and Yes, this is where it's located. If I right-click on the preview pane itself (which is separate from the header/button pane) I get a pop-up menu with "Reply to List" on it, regardless of whether or not a post is a list post. If I click on this option for a non-list post I get a reply/composition window with the To address empty. For a list post, this is filled in with the list address by T-bird. > b) has to be manually placed there (unless it is now placed there by > default automatically, which it wasn't when it was first introduced). The "Reply List" button is apparently there by default when a list post is selected. T-bird 31.4.0 is doubtless not the latest version, since the Linux distributions on my VMs is a few years old, so the behavior may have changed since then. -- Lindsay Haisley | "The only unchanging certainty FMP Computer Services | is the certainty of change" 512-259-1190 | http://www.fmp.com | - Ancient wisdom, all cultures ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
