I'm using the bleeding-edge -claws version. In sylpheed-claws I see three buttons for Reply, Sender, All (the dreaded reply all) which are roughly the same sending options I see in mutt (though admittedly I'm a mutt newbie). My tests reveal that hitting: Reply -> To: [email protected] Sender -> To: "Eric G. Miller" <[email protected]> All -> To: [email protected], Cc: [email protected] If you want a further test, reply to me and Cc: to the list. I believe Sylpheed's Reply button is intelligent enough to discriminate.
