Hello, 


I think this case ever happened to many of us :) :

Imagine this email's headers :

From: dede_in_mylist@domain.com
To: someone_of_mylist@domain.com
cc: mylist@domain.com

when someone@ receive this mail and hit "reply to all", it becomes:

from: someone_of_mylist@domain.com
to: dede_of_mylist@domain.com
cc: mylist@domain.com

In this case, it's not a problem with a good filtering. ( on cc field).

Now imagine that somebody (dede) of mylist put, a particular member of
"mylist", in addition of that list in the "cc:" field (maybe because
"dede" doesn't know that this particular member is a part of
mylist)- like:

From: dede_in_mylist@domain.com
To: someone_of_mylist@domain.com
cc: mylist@domain.com, someoneelse_of_mylist@domain.com

( So here, someoneelse_of_mylist receive 2 mails )

when someone@ receive this mail and hit "reply to all", it becomes:

from: someone_of_mylist@domain.com
to: dede_of_mylist@domain.com
cc: mylist@domain.com, someoneelse_of_mylist@domain.com

So here, someoneelse_of_mylist *still* receive 2 mails !

In *this* case, it would be really great that sylpheed auto-add a
"reply-to" header with "mylist@domain.com" in it.
