My previous reply never did make it through.

I agree with Eike that I find $reply_self odd, so that makes me a poor
judge of "correct" behavior.

Yet, I also agree with Roger that the current behavior for a group
reply is very strange.  The code _is_ initially setting To according to
$reply_self for a group reply, but the $nometoo ends up mangling it,
which does not happen for the reply case.

So I'm inclined to push the patch: with a caveat that any screams from
other users will incur a revert.
