Re: *** ADMIN: Attn Thunderbird Users: Reply-to behavior

+1 of still using Thunderbird, including IMAP to read my gmail. At some point I will move off of GMail. Google tries to put everybody into their way of doing things.

Are there still a lot of Thunderbird users out there? After going to gmail

In my feeble mind, Thunderbird IS the email client. I use it to front-end
multiple email servers. So when you say "not all email clients" do you
mean clients other than the Windows desktop version? I admit I don't use
Thunderbird on my phone, so I wouldn't know about that.

I'm sort of confused, but that's normal. In Thunderbird, I have two
buttons: Reply and Reply List. Reply goes to the author, Reply List
goes to the list.

I'm on version 52.5.0, which is quite recent, but this behavior has
been around a while.

Not all email clients have a "Reply to list" option.

When TBird 52 was released, they made a decision (misguided, in my
opinion) to ignore the Reply-To message header when replying to a mailing
list message.

They've now given a workaround to that behavior.
