Thanks very much for this change.

Previously a 'reply' ment sending to original author, and reply-all ment 
sending to author with CC to the list.
At least in my Mozilla Thunderbird 2.0.0-win32 this is the case.
A 'compose message to' (or whatever it's called, using a dutch client) 
for 'syslinux at zytor.com' does create a new window but looses the thread 
info, or at least its message contents history.
The idea of mailinglists is to keep stuff on the mailinglist instead of 
bothering individual people.

Is there any different way the replying should have been done in the 
past, in modern/popular electronic mail clients?

Bernd
