and I like how mutt does this. You have MFT set to mutt-users@mutt.org. I hit 'g' and got that. If I'd hit 'r' instead, it would have gone straight to you. This is so freaking simple I don't understand why more MUAs don't implement it. It leaves the choice of where replies go to the person originating the email. I, for instance, prefer the message to go through the list so it ends up in my folder set up for the list. If I decide I want something different, I can always change my own MFT while editing the email and mutt will honor that. <3 mutt. The least shitty mail client out there. -Jeremy
