So what if they press the wrong button??? It is their problem..
So is my problem if I enter the wrong person from my adress book.
These kind of mistakes happen only to people who just hit reply
and type something stupid, instead of actualy READing what is written
and "reply" as it should have been done.

Most just press reply add a comment and send the whole message quoted
back to the mailing list. It happend that I actualy had to use Find 
option in my MUA to locate where the answer was becouse everything was 
quoted.

If you take *your time* to read and reply, then you don't make so
stupid
mistakes as pressing the wrong button. 
And btw. download PMMail and try it. PMMail pops up a dialog (you don't
press a button, you have a selection list) and gives you another hint
(!)
that you can send this message privately or to the mailing list.

I also moderate a mailing list where most people use PMMail and 
mailing list sets the Reply-To. There has been only 1 (!) mistake
when someone replied to the mailing list instead of privately.
