I've just joined the list. Looking for way to control sender replies in IMP.
Like Nick from a couple of days ago, our users (and helpdesk) are asking
for a way to make the default reply to sender only or always chosen.

While Michael Slusarz's reply is probably correct for many end users,
it isn't desired from a management point of view.  You assume the
user is intelligent and observant.  We are talking about people who
respond to phishing emails.  Don't assume too much of the user!

So how is locking someone into the opposite behavior also NOT assuming too much of the user? It's exactly the same, just with a different default behavior.

Thus, the question becomes what is the proper default behavior. I've given the reasoning why we choose Reply to All. I have yet to see a single valid argument as to why Reply to Sender should be the default.

The primary reasoning lies in the fact the button is labeled "Reply", which
in all other email programs means "reply to sender". If you're going to default
the "Reply" button to "Reply to All", then it should be labeled as such.

It's not defaulting to Reply to All. Which reply type it is, is decided dynamically, depending on who the original message's recipient(s) were.

If you are saying that the current UI is not clear enough in presenting these selections, we are always open to suggestions.


As I said in my other message to the list, there should be two buttons:
Reply and Reply to All.  Both buttons can have the drop down list with
the other options, I suppose.  But, Reply = Reply to Sender in Outlook,
hence the confusion.

So, IMP is doing something smarter than any other mail program, and thus we have to revert to the old stupid behavior, because people want to rather use a dump program?
