Otherwise, replies to your post are sent to you only and not to the list (which sort of defeats the purpose of a mail list). The real purpose of the "reply-to" field is when you wish to have replies to your mail sent to some other address than the sending address. For example, you send a note to your sister-in-law from work, but you want her reply sent to your home. Second, when you started a new topic by replying to an existing thread and changed the Subject heading, you hijacked the thread. It's much better to create a new message. Many of us sort our mail folders by thread rather than by any of the other fields. Since you're using KMail, you too can enjoy this feature -- just highlight a folder, click on Folder, and select Thread Messages. Try it; you'll like it. Note that Threading is enabled on a folder-by-folder basis, so while I enable threading and sort-by-date in my mail list folders, my inbox and sent-mail folders are sorted by date but without threading. Kinda neat. -- cmg
