Thanks for searching for this. I have found it also, but I’m afraid that the features mentioned at https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Help_Documentation:Mail-Followup-To_and_Mail-Reply-To#Configure_Thunderbird aren’t available in Thunderbird 24.1. > As I said, with Claws Mail ( Linux or Windows ), hitting Reply gives the > List address.

Replies should be addressed to the sender (specified either in the "From:" or the "Reply-to:" fields). I agree that I wouldn’t complain if Thunderbird would do the same, but simply because I would had worked around the issue. >> And although I tend to forget to select replying to list, replying to >> the “From:” field is the right thing to do. > > Normally yes, but in this instance it is the LIST Server that copies you the > message.
