Hi,
I have some trouble with sups behavior in a certain case.
Some clients seem to put the mailinglist in the CC field.
Apparently if someone with such a client replies to me, sup will
automatically reply to the person, not to the list.
In cases where such a client replies to another person on the list, sup
will reply to the list.
Example 1:
from: A
to: me
CC: list
reply:
from: me
to: A
Example 2:
from: A
to: B
CC: list
reply:
from: me
to: list
I want it to behave like in Example 2 in the case of Example 1 as well.
Is there a way to do that?
It's really annoying to send to single people instead of the list by
accident.
Regards,
--

It's really annoying to send a message to the list instead of to a
single person by accident.
In any case, mailing lists can set a Reply-To header, and I think Sup
will reply to the address included in that header. If it does not,
then I think that's a bug :-).
Cheers,
Israel

I partially agree.
I think we can take a lesson from gmail here: A simple reply always
replies to the sender. A group reply will include the list of course,
and in that case you are responsible for trimming the recipients. I've
been caught by surprise when in 'sup a simple reply was sent to the list
*instead* of the sender. It is hard to predict when it will happen,
because the Reply-To header is not ordinarily visible.

I'm not sure that it's not a header issue. I don't know a lot about
headers, but I think you can't assume that a reply to is set. It isn't
on the list were I just experienced the problem and it isn't on this
list either.
I found 'In-reply-to' but no 'Reply-to'.
No idea which other headers could be relevant. 'Precedence: list'
sounded like it could be relevant, but it's there in all cases.

This might (and I really am guessing here) be because sup skips
duplicates (by message id). In the first exaple you get the mail
twice (assuming you are subscribed to lista). The one you most
probably get first (and gets indexed first) is the message you get
directly and which does not have list headers. The one which makes
the extra hop via list server (and has the list headers) gets to you
later and is simply discarded as duplicate. When you go reply the
mail, sup is perfectly unaware of it being a list mail.
> It's really annoying to send to single people instead of the list by

I can tell you it is _way_ more annoying to accidentally send private
mail to list (I've done that, once _really_ badly). So this behavior
(automatical selection between list reply and private reply) should
IMO be conservative in this sense.

I'd like it the other way around, always reply to list and simply change
to 'sender' in the (at least for me) rare cases where it's not supposed
to go to the list.

Whoa!
Mailing lists _can_ do that, but they should not. Ironically you
happend to mention one of the reasons why they should not. :D
Let's consider the max damage done by modifying vs. not modifying
reply-to: If the header is unmangled the user may in certain
sircumstances accidentally send private mail instead of list mail.
That's an annoyance at most. If the header is mangled by list server
the user may in certain sircumstances accidentally send list mail
instead of private mail. That may cost the user a lot of goodwill,
money or her job. Ergo, list setting reply-to header violates the
principle of least damage.

That makes sense. Could it check for the presence of list headers and
discard the one without?
One thing I noticed with the list in CC mails is that replying to
'recipient' would reply to the list. I don't get that from a semantic
point.

I see your point. I don't know what conservative behavior would be in
this case. I think consistency is key though.

It is reasonable that replying to list mail defaults to "Mailing list"
as reply mode.
Sup does pretty good job being list aware. I think the problem here
is sup failing to detect a list mail and treating it as "ordinary"
mail. There are at least two cases when sup could (afaik) miss a list mail.
1) A mail which is sent to/cc/bcc a list member and the list so that
list member gets two copies of the mail. Sup "sees" only the first
one to arrive, which most probably is the non-list duplicate.
2) A similar mail than previous but the copy via list is not delivered
at all. Maybe the list performs delivery magic ("whoa, cc-header
shows that this list member already got the mail) or whatelse.
You can enumerate mailing lists to mutt and have it consider mails
to/cc a such address as list mails regardless of the precence of list
headers.

If sup is doing the removal of duplicates, could we get sup to update the
List-* headers if there are any new ones?

Yes, that's one of the endless philosophical debates about email and
mailing lists. I do actually agree with that, it is better not to set
the Reply-To header.
I was using as an example to show that Sup is behaving correctly in
this case :-).
Cheers,
Israel

Are you using GMail? If you are, it is not possible.
GMail also discards duplicated messages, so if you get first the
message delivered directly to you, you will not see the list message
ever.

Nope, I'm not using gmail at all, but thanks. I checked my mail
providers options and found nothing with regards to deleting duplicates.
Checking all the mailinglists settings will take a while though.

Yep, sup is definitely doing a good job, it seems to be sane in almost
any case.

I just checked my most active lists and they all were set to 'avoid
duplicates if your address is in CC or TO'. I changed that and will see
what happens. Maybe sup is clever enough to discard the non-list message.

I don't know anything about mutt and don't consider using it. I'm fairly
happy with sup :)

I wasn't suggesting you to go mutt yourself. ;) I was just wondering
how other mailclients have resolved this problem of duplicate replies
(one list and one off-list) from ill-behaving mailclients.
Possible solution would be to maintain list of known mailinglist
addresses (say mailinglists.txt, just like we now have labels.txt) and
consider all mails targeted to a list address as list mail even if
they wouldn't have list headers.
Any considerations on the implications that would have?

That would help with the off-list dupe getting indexed first, but not
with the (pretty common) mailinglist setup where the list server plays
clever and skips delivery to mailinglist members already appearing in
recipient list.

My guess is that some client use primitive means like the subject, but
maybe there's some more header information that's useful, like
reference or in-reply-to. Again, I don't know much about headers.

So it would compare TO and CC with the list, and if it finds it, treats
it as list mail. Well, I guess for some of the 'treat as list mail'
things it might need some headers, but I really don't know.

Sort of an edge-case, but what would this mean for cross-posted
messages, i.e., messages sent to multiple mailing lists?
