If a list message is highlighted in the index, there's a "Reply List" button presented right next to the "Reply" button. If a post isn't a list post, this button is absent. This is even simpler than what Evolution does. If T-bird and Evolution are NOT looking at headers and offering an appropriate list reply option, then how are they determining when to display this button, and when not to? I think is the "out of the box" behavior of T-bird for Linux, but I may be misspoken on this ;) > So, it sounds like you just sortof misspoke... ;) Only superficially. The point is that both of these MUAs are list-aware and offer options appropriately. > I don't get to use it much since I can't put it on the > main toolbar (I do have a bug open for this)... > I don't use T-bird much at all, except as a MUA to distribute FMP's monthly invoices and statements, and it has issues which make it problematic for this purpose unless one is careful. -- Lindsay Haisley | "The only unchanging certainty FMP Computer Services | is the certainty of change" 512-259-1190 | http://www.fmp.com | - Ancient wisdom, all cultures ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
