If your user interface offers you reply and reply-to-all/reply-to-list (good ones attach the *right* thing of the latter to the button if there's one) then you do not need to know about what happens in the background or what e-mail headers are, you just hit reply if you want to reply in private and the other button if you want to reply to all aka the list. This is simple and intuitive user interface and that's why I consider a mailing list setting or changing reply to to be broken. Greets Alex -- »With the first link, the chain is forged.
