Hi Myriam,

now in thunderbird I see the following options. I am using the newsgroup 
through Thunderbird but I have it set up as a newsgroup

When looking at the threads I see this:

* Reply to sender

* Reply to all

* reply to list

I am new to newsgroups I have never used them before... But, really want 
to keep up with whats going on with Kubuntu. So what does each option do?

Sender: would be just to you? as in it would email it to you instead of 
posting to the group? That is what I have been using.

Reply to all ???? does what

List ???? does what

Thanks,
Christopher
