I don't use mutt, so I don't know about follow-up-to (though am considering
mutt). However, I do know that i have to be careful when replying to messages
from this list. the default behavior when I reply to this list, but not to most
of my lists, is for the message usually to be sent to the person rather than the
list. If I say "yes' to "reply to all recipients" the list ends up being the cc.
So if you get back a reply just to you instead of the entire list, or if you get
two copies of a message, one directly to you and one to the list, it isn't
necessarily because
the person deliberately put your address in. However, people need to be aware in
replying to different lists what their mail programs are doing. Unless I am in a
hurry and forget, I allways arrow up to the "to" field, erase the person's
address, and put in the list address instead. This doesn't appear to be a
problem with the way I have Pine configured, but rather something in the way the
list is configured, perhaps in combination with certain mail programs. Sometimes
people think a reply automatically ensures that the message will go to the list
and only to the list, but this actually can vary from list to list and also how
you have your program configured.
