Eudora does match the standards.
The "Reply" button sends the reply to the address specified in the From:
header (or the Reply-to: header if present), and "Reply to All" adds the
original
"To:" address (if this is not the address of the author of the reply) to the
"To:"
field, copies the Cc: header (minus one's own address) and adds the
"Sender:" to the
"Cc:" line. This behaviour can even be fine-tuned in the "Settings" menu.
All it takes is clicking "Reply" for a personal reply and <Shift>-"Reply" for a
reply to the mailing list. It is possible to make "Reply-to-all" the
default, but
I prefer the little additional check before I send a reply to a large number of
people.
