For this list, and this list only (I likely could identify the issue by comparing raw messages, but I won't bother), when I hit 'r' I get the sender of the latest message. In this case, "ros...@gmail.com". So I have to start typing "pyt" to change it to the list, double tab to body, type, then

This got a little big. I accidentally did not change the address from Sven's to the list and emailed him. Seconds later, he replied to the list quoting my entire message so that I wouldn't have to send it to the list too (after his reply, which would make it hard to understand). I thanked him for

I see. I've bad experiences with Thunderbird in the past, but I will try a desktop client again. You **can** provide input to Google, they even say the love it. But I've never seen one company ignore user feedback as much as Google does. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
