Thank you!
I think I am figuring it out so far, using Thunderbird. You are correct that is
much easier when replying to e-mails received from the mailing list.
One question I do have (though maybe you won't be able to answer about
Thunderbird), is whether it is sufficient to reply directly to the mailing
list,
as Thunderbird wants to do when clicking its "Reply List" button?
I have seen that my responses show up correctly in the mailing list, but is
that enough for to whom I'm replying to see the message correctly?
Thunderbird does have the option for sending messages directly to the recipient
and CC'ing the mailing list (by clicking "Reply All"), but it doesn't seem to
be
the default action, and I'm not sure what the better behavior is in this case.
Is there a reason to prefer one behavior to the other?
Thank you.
