    All the more reason why they should be prompted.

    That is why I said the popup defaults to the reply-to.

    *smile*  Like I said, I can play with you with reply-tos.  Want a message
to go to my debian lists?  All I need to do is accidentally send you a message
while in one of those folders since I set the reply-to back to the list since
the list doesn't do it.  You hit reply, not knowing that there is a reply-to
and now your message is going to Steve Lamb <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
