You should use the “reply to list” operation of your MUA (or, if your MUA doesn't have that, pressure the vendor to fix it or switch to an MUA that does implement it). > Isn't this inconsistent?)

The message itself contains all the information your MUA needs to provide those options to you. -- \ “People come up to me and say, ‘Emo, do people really come up | `\ to you?’” —Emo Philips | _o__) | Ben Finney -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-policy-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
