Its less using the email interface, and more people using braindead
email clients. Gmail and Mutt (the two I use most) seem to handle
replying well, setting the correct headers to indicate things. But I've

Live Mail. And it seems that Outlook Express is better at mailing lists
than Outlook, which is strange...
