Well I didn't implement support for nested distribution 
lists. I didn't think it would be really useful and it 
isn't supported in kdelibs (kabc) yet.

Removing duplicate email addresses sounds like a nice 
feature. But it should be done for all emails I think not 
just for ones sent to distribution lists. Hmm, I wonder if 
anyone actually wants to send an email to the same address 
twice on purpose?

And these reply/forward options aren't implemented but I can 
see how they would be useful. Unfortunately I'm not sure 
what the GUI should be like.

Don.
