As an aside, I just did a "reply to list" in kmail and it worked fine. Here's why. Evolution's "reply to list works" fine, too. But the way this list's server is configured and the way people "reply to all" instead causes problems for Evolution. In Evolution, when you "reply to list", the program looks for an "X-mail-list:" header. If the copy of the message you are replying to was sent through the list, the header is found and Evolution addresses the reply accordingly. However, if the message you are replying to is a copy sent directly to you, and not through the list, there is no "X-mail-list:" header for Evolution to follow. In that circumstance, Evolution reverts to "reply to all". Kmail works the same way, with one difference. In kmail, folders can be designated as holding a list, including the list address. If "reply to list" is selected and there is no header to get the list address from, kmail reverts to getting the list address from the folder setting. This works really well. I am really learning to love both MUAs. They each have their own individual strengths. I wish each would incorporate the benefits of the other. -- _______________________________ Art Alexion Arthur S.
