When Evolution retrieves mail from MS Exchange it doesn't download the entire message, just the message summary. the 'List-' headers aren't present in the summary, so Evolution doesn't realize that the message is from a list, hence 'Reply to list' isn't activated. Whilst this isn't really a bug, it is a functional deficiency--Evolution should decide whether or not the message is from a list when the message is opened, not just on the basis of the message summary. I'll just have to live with the inconvenience for now. </blockquote></div></div> I respectfully suggest that it is a bug and should be reported as one. It is a bug because it is unexpected behavior. A mail client should be aware of both the "List" headers as well as the "Reply to". Second, by submitting a bug, you give the developers a chance to know of the concern and make an affirmative decision whether to fix it or not. A discussion on a community support list does not reach the devs. At least not reliably. Regards, -- PE</blockquote><div> Evolution's behaviour in regards to reply-to-list has been debated since 2005, the latest bug discussion: <a href="https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=624204">https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=624204</a> See comment #16. </div></div>
