    Correct, I think List-Post is the corresponding header to the List-Reply
    function I am speaking of. I burred too much with the term "List-Reply:
    header field". Thanks for clarification.

    But if you don't see the term list-reply in
    http://marc.merlins.org/netrants/listreplyto.txt
    then your browser search function is seriously broken.

    A dedicated button for List Reply is a very elegant version of my wish
    of making that configurable.
    But to make this usable at all, cyrus mailman has to include this header
    field, so a list-reply function knows what's the adress of the list and
    which adresses are persons which are on To: line, too.

    At the moment, the MUA can support whatever it wants, it cannot know
    what's the list address.

    Best,
    Daniel
