From the FAQ:
You might wonder why replies go to the original poster and not the list? Thats because we do not "munge" the mail headers by inserting a "Reply-To: <LISTNAME>" because it makes it more difficult for subscribers to handle the mail the way they want to. Your mail client probably has a "reply" function as well as a "reply to all" or "reply to list" one; Please use the latter if you want your message to go to the list and not just to the original poster. Also, please don't complain about this on the lists, it has been discussed many, many, many times in the past already. opensuse+faq@opensuse.org http://en.opensuse.org/Mailing_Lists#Reply-to-munging Henne -- Henne Vogelsang, http://hennevogel.de "To die.

This behaviuor is incredible annoying ( especially when thunderbird does not have **official support** for reply to list) user can also make use of procmail to change this IMHO technically correct but unwanted behaviuor. see: http://lists.mysql.com/faq.php#replyto they also can use the "editheader" sieve extensions ( in the rare case your server support it)

Yes it does. It's an extension called 'Reply in Group'. Follow the installation how to. Click on 'Reply All' to reply to the group. I just did to reply to this message. 'Reply All' works as it should in a non-mail-list email. -- Bob -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Hmm. When I try to install it (in Thunderbird), it says it cannot be installed because it is not compatible with firefox. I have firefox 2.0 Seems odd. Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

It sounds like you left-clicked on the Install Now button which would try to install it to firefox. You should right-click on it and select 'Save Link as'. Once the file is saved, you need to click on the install button in the extensions menu and point to the file you just downloaded. I originally installed it in the beginning of December. They did an upgrade on Thunderbird on the 20th to 1.5.0.9. When I checked on my extension just now, it didn't show and the icon wasn't in the customize list. So I re-installed it. It now shows on the extension and icon lists. In any event, the 'Reply All' replies to the list and 'Reply' replies to the sender. YMMV -- Bob -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

"Reply in Group" doesn't reply to the mail list. It says it's made for use in news groups. -- (o:]>*HUGGLES*<[:o) Billie Walsh The three best words in the English Language: "I LOVE YOU" Pass them on! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

"official support" means included in the default installation of current stable version of the product, no third party extensions required. That extension does not seems to work with mailing lists BTW..;)

"official support" means included in the default installation of current stable version of the product, no third party extensions required. Based on the fact that this is a feature that was first requested nearly 7 years ago for the mozilla suite, and has only appeared, in a bastardized form (see my first post in this thread) very recently, you are asking for something which you will not see, unless you do install an extension.
Anyone using a mozilla product will simply have to deal with it. -- The best way to accelerate a computer running Windows is at 9.81 m/s² -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

/snip/ If you use KMail, the reply button automatically replies to the list. As I am doing at present. --doug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Yeah...........well..............I looked at the site someone sent to "get" the extension. Looked like half the page was written in Martian. HOWEVER, I did sort of get something about SuSE 10.2 version of Thunderbird. AND, as I probably will soon be migrating my everyday use over to the eMachine that has that installed......... WELL, I guess till then I will just have to see about remembering to change where the mail goes. Still got a few bugs to get worked out of the new system. I don't want to migrate till I have it set up the way I want it, or as close as I can get it. -- (o:]>*HUGGLES*<[:o) Billie Walsh The three best words in the English Language: "I LOVE YOU" Pass them on! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
