First, preventing you from receiving duplicate copies of replies to messages which you send to mailing lists, and second, ensuring that you do get a reply separately for any messages sent to known lists to which you are not subscribed. The header will contain only the list’s address for subscribed lists, and both the list address and your own email address for unsubscribed lists. Without this header, a group reply to your message sent to a subscribed list will be sent to both the list and your address, resulting in two copies of the same email for you. My version of mutt (1.5.17+20080114-1+b1) is newer than yours, so maybe this behavior was changed recently or the older manpage is less explicitly clear about it. > mutt will generate the Mail-Followup-To header only if I 'subscribe' to > the list.

I now tried it and it does, contrary to what the documentation seems to suggest: list-reply (default: L) Reply to the current or tagged message(s) by extracting any addresses which match the regular expressions given by the lists or subscribe commands, ... -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
