Dear All,

I'm new on debian lists and I'm using pine455.

When I replied from [email-masked], why does my pine always
reply to sender and not to [email-masked]? Tricks?

thx
.dave

Peace was the way.

David,

It depends on the headers of the message that you received. Pine will use
(or ask you, depending on the settings) the "reply-to" header. If that
header does not exist, then the address listed in the From field is used.
Some mailing lists identify themselves by adding a Sender: header. Look
into the headers so that you will find which header contains the address
of the mailing list that you are receiving, and set up a role (press M S R
R to set up one) so that mail from that list will get the "correct" To:
header when you reply to a message from that list.
