The exact handling of how to do replies is a controversial topic. If you=20
change anything there, people will complain.

I don't know the reason for the original reply handling, which was committe=
d=20
by Ingo, as far as I can see. Ingo, can you explain why this was done the w=
ay=20
it is?

If no ones comes up with a valid reason why reply to author should use the=
=20
reply-to address, then I guess we can change it.
I couldn't find a reason for the current behavior right now.=20

BTW, the function we are talking about is KMMessage::createReply().

Regards,
Thomas
