Package: mutt-ng
Version: 0.0+20050814-1
Severity: normal

The list_reply variable is ambiguously documented in the muttngrc(5) manual
page. As implemented, if list_reply = yes, the reply command directs the reply
to the author of the original message rather than to the mailing list.

If list_reply = no (the default), the reply command directs the reply to the
mailing list rather than to the author of the original message as specified in
the "from" field of that message. By default therefore, reply and list reply
have the same effect.

I suspect the eefect of list_reply is the reverse of what was intended, i.e.,
if list_reply == yes then the reply should go to the mailing list; if
list_reply == no then the reply should go to the sender.

If the current behaviour is what the muttng implementors wanted, then the
manual page should be corrected to make this clear.
