If you want a warning when replying to the author only instead of the
mailing list you should set this variable to t.  Maybe the
documentation could be improved:

,----[ (info "(gnus)Mail") ]
| `gnus-confirm-treat-mail-like-news'

|      `gnus-confirm-mail-reply-to-news' when replying to mail.  This is
|      useful for treating mailing lists like newsgroups.

Bye, Reiner.
