while you have him on the buttons issue, it supports both reply-to-all and
reply-to-sender features (R vs r), which was what he *meant*.  pine handles
it too.  as do every mailreader i've ever used (and remember, i started out
on mailx, which is probably the most primitive mailreader that any of us
will ever use, outside of something-that-runs-on-your-cellphone.  any opinions
from that crowd?)  i was a mailx user for over 6 years before i finally
decided to install mutt for myself on my main mailreading machine...

it's not all THAT bad.  there's only about 30 command keys to learn, but
you only need about 3.

it is?  what's nontrivial about "reply to all recipients?" that it prompts
you with if you ever try to reply to a mail that has a sender and a to:
address that aren't you?  granted i never ever use pine so i may be
misremembering from my tech support days, please forgive me if so (and some
pine user please post correct info =))
