Re: [PLUG] Thunderbird email client ignores Reply-To field...

[Fred Stluka <fred@bristle.com>]

Charlie,

Good to know.  But, I'm no more likely to remember to hit Reply List
than to hit Reply-To-All, which would also send to the list.  I wanted
a fix that would mean I could just hit Ctrl-R (Cmd-R on Mac) as usual
and have it do the right thing.  The Config Editor setting does that for
me.

Thanks!
