I'm using KMail here, and it provides me a "reply to mailing list" command with a nice easy keyboard shortcut, so it's very easy to behave correctly. Sylpheed also provides that command in a convenient form, and my usual client (Turnpike) allows me to treat mailing lists as if they were newsgroups, and Does The Right Thing by default (in fact if you do reply to author it asks you if you're sure you meant that). Posts from the list contain headers that should allow a properly designed mail client to know when to do this. Granted MS Outlook [Express] is designed to make The Right Thing very hard to do, and Thunderbird seems to be a clone of that. However, "I'm using a rubbish tool" doesn't sound like a very good excuse to me, when there are better ones available for free. _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
