Here's the problem (mail-client-specific - in my case, Kmail):
Like many of you, I subscribe to 2 Linux mail lists; the SuSE list and
the generic list Doug hosts. If I want to reply to something on the
linux-users list, I click the 'reply' icon. If I do the same thing on
the SuSE list, the reply goes to the *author* and not the list, so then
I must open the address book, find the address for the SuSE list, click
on it, and then delete the author's address.
"Big deal!" you say. But it is a royal PIA from where I sit. If I
remember, (*if*) I can click the 'reply ALL' icon and then remember to
delete the extra address. It would be great if they both worked the
same way - but they don't.
My 2 kopecks...
Regards
