Yes, but reply-all sends a copy to the poster as well as the list.
What I want is reply-list, acknowledging the list headers... and Gmail
simply doesn't have that.

I also want to be able to change my mind as to whether it's
reply-all/reply-list/reply-sender after typing up a reply. Guess it's
time I grabbed Tbird to find out if it can do that...
