In general, on a mailing list, you're supposed to use "Reply All".  This
is due to the fact that mail program authors stubbornly refuse to
implement the "Followup" functionality which news programs have had for
20 years; the technical problems associated with that for mail have been
solved for at least 10, with the creation of the List-Post: header.
