hi cindy,
its weird. I have windows 7 with windows mail. often reply works, but 
sometimes, I send it to one person only by accident. So, in other words, 
control r does different things. To be sure it gets to the right list, I 
often shift tab now and check my edit fields.

Ok, cool, glad to hear about the variations. I've just seen a couple
of recent instances where people intended to reply to the list but
replied to an individual so I thought it might be worth people
checking their clients to see how they reply.
