Furthermore, way upthread the original request was to use an MUA
that properly supports participating in lists when reading/replying
to list email.
There is no expectation that all MUAs do this well, use one that
does. My postfix-users correspondence is exclusively via mutt:
lists postfix-users@postfix.org ...
send-hook '~t postfix-users@postfix.org' my_hdr From: Viktor Dukhovni
<postfix-us...@dukhovni.org>
send-hook '~t postfix-users@postfix.org' my_hdr Reply-To:
<postfix-users@postfix.org>
send-hook '~t postfix-users@postfix.org' my_hdr Fcc: ""
...
I often read/respond-to other mail to the underlying account via Mail.app,
but all responses to the Postfix list are only via mutt.
Use the right tool for the right job. If a given tool is not up to
the task, use another.
