I wasn't really suggesting changing anything. I was mostly curious
about how it could be changed. Also, I wasn't suggesting to change
BeMail but have an option in it to let the user of it change how it
works slightly. I think it's fine how it is except for reply-all. For
reply-all, it doesn't put both the sender and the mailing list address
into To:. I don't know why someone would want to do that but I think
it make sense for it to do that if the user clicked reply-all.
Hmm, I guess I was just thinking out loud. It probably doesn't matter
much.
