PINEism in ding (was Re: About to-addresses and followup [poll])

[Sudish Joseph <joseph@cis.ohio-state.edu>]

If to-address is set and you use "B m" a lot, you might end up posting
private email to a mailing list.  For e.g., you might have "B m"'ed a
private message into a group with to-address set.  If you then do a
followup, the list address gets added to the headers, it's then easy
to C-cC-c and embarass yourself.  This is not unlike Pine's behaviour
on seeing a Newsgroups: in mail.

Well, I put in (b) finally.  Joe Luser has a better chance of
preventing blunders like the above when he's presented with multiple
addresses in the To: header.
