Hi all,

Whenever I get a message through a distribution list, like:

sm-di...@lists.ibiblio.org
sm-u...@lists.ibiblio.org
debia...@lists.debian.org
...

Or any other one, I have to do " reply to all ", to then remove the
original sender, and copy the distribution list as the the one to
reply to...

This is kind of frustrating when one participates in several
distribution lists.

I'd be glad to try a new option that " reply to List ", and even
better, when receiving a message sent to a list, that should be the
default option to reply to.

So far, I changed the default " reply " option to " reply to all ",
but that's not enough, :).

Thanks,

Javier.

I also think this could be useful.
It could be selected automatically when the messages comes from a
list, most of the list I participate has the following:

List-Post: <mailto:----->
List-Help: <mailto:---->
List-Subscribe: <mailto:---->
List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:---->
List-Owner: <mailto:----->

If the fields exists, the options could be:

Reply to list
List Help
Unsubscribe from this list

Regards.
