For people that are just on mandrake lists it seems like a pain to switch habits. For those who will eventually move to 10.1, Kmail has a few new features added in, including one that lets you specify certain folders as containing mailing lists. One of the options when you do that is to specify the reply to action as either reply to individual or reply to list. Once you specify, you don't need to worry about any of that, hitting reply automatically sends the response to where you want it to go. -- Bryan Phinney Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

The reply-to address issue was already discussed here. It is not my fault, as GMail does not allow the users to set the I know it takes a little training, but so far both the mailers i have used in linux (kmail and sylpheed) have reply-to-list actions. Since i found those (wy back) i have not been bothered by reply-to settings. For people that are just on mandrake lists it seems like a pain to switch habits. I am on a bunch of lists, and some don't set the reply-to at all, so it was easier for me make the switch. ctrl+l for lists, ctrl+r for individuals. Another option is to set it to reply-to-list all the time. If there's no list, it just goes to the person. And i would like to remind people again that the welcome message and the etiquette (i never spell that correctly) page aren't mine: they were written by me and several other list members. eric -- Mandrake HowTo's More: http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
