What if neither to-list nor to-address is right?

What if neither to-list nor to-address is right?

[Kai Grossjohann]

Hi,

I've got a group which corresponds pretty much but not exactly to a
mailing list.  to-list is not a good parameter because people tell me
they get duplicate mail when I just hit "F".  to-address is not a good
parameter because that sets the To address always to the mailing list
address, but there are some people not on the list that I might want
to send mail to (by hitting "F").

Is there a way to tell Gnus the following?

    I want to-list for this group, but don't send mail to jrl@foo.com
    if you already send it to mailing@list.org because jrl@foo.com is
    a member of that mailing list.

tia,
kai

I think I want something related.  I like the to-address behaviour, but
if a message is sent to two mailing lists, I want my reply to go to
both.  So I guess I want to-address for this group, but do send mail to
xxx@foo.com in my big list of mailing lists.

Set `rmail-dont-reply-to-names' to something that matches the users
you don't want to be Cc'd in `gnus-summary-mode-hook' or something.
