They wouldnʼt, but apparently Mailman sets 'Reply-To: ghe@sdf.org' on
Gregory's behalf, which then causes Outlook to respond only to him.

In Gnus, when I say 'wide reply', it hoovers up 'From,To,CC,Reply-To',
so that doesnʼt bother me. I donʼt know what rmail does, hence my
question.

Maybe Drew needs a different MUA? :-)
