A number of users (including me) argue that Reply All should put the prior sender's address in the To: field and the other recipients' addresses in the CC: field. That was the way the mail-news component used to work. This argument appears to be supported by RFC 5322, which is the closest statement to a standard that exists on this issue. See bug #933472 at <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=933472>. If Mozilla and Mozilla-based products are to continue claiming to be standards-compliant, this needs to be fixed. -- David E.
