The list of groups you're subscribed to is a global thing and does not change when you change groups. It is perfectly okay to optionally seed the list of subscribed e-mail addresses from group parameters (to-address), but it won't be exhaustive or necessarily correct. That's why I think there should be a group parameter "subscribed" that, when present, indicates that to-address is a list you're subscribed to. Code can go through the parameters for all the groups doing "use to-address if subscribed." > Oh, one difference would be that my suggestion goes by the group > name, but your suggestion goes by the mail address. Hm. Why is it > necessary to do it by mail address? It should become clear upon reading the spec for Mail-Followup-To: http://cr.yp.to/proto/replyto.html --=20 matt
