There's a difference between reply and wide reply. I don't think there's a difference between wide reply and followup as far as MFT is concerned; I think Gnus calls it "followup" if it's news and "wide reply" if it's mail. > An explicit MFT clearly tells the recipients what the sender has in > mind... - this reduces the assumptions on part of the other party > (human/mail client).

Also note that an explicit MFT will override someone else's to-list parameter, if they're using a Gnus that knows about both. paul
