    That's playing and deliberation on the senders part. Let's get back to
real life. :) If you did that accidentally, that would be your mistake.
Can't sentence the user to a perennial popup confirmation to deal with
possible exceptions to an overwhelming rule. Isn't that taking your never
assume philosophy a bit too far ..... to the point where you're shooting
yourself in the foot? :)

    BTW, Nick did bring up a valid point about simply looking at the To:
address before hitting send. I see that in a similar way as checking to
make sure there's a subject before sending. TB! is a little unorthodox in
that it will put the senders name and the reply to address together in the
To: field. If that confuses the user then the user may turn it off.
