Most people don't use kmail, nor any other mail client that handles list replying properly. > However, GMail doesn't which is frankly stupid and annoying. > Especially since it default to replying to _just_ the author of the > email and not the list at all. And no greasemonkey script either.

The email header's We have to deal witht he reality of the situation, no commonly used mail client handles list headers properly, so it's pointless to argue this is a good reason to keep the status quo, in fact it's a good reason to set the reply to to the list since most mail clients don't handle it properly, and most new comers don't know they have to hit reply to all. And you sent this to me directly, was the intentional or because the email client didn't reply to the list? _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
