The doc says to put .* in first position, and that's what is in my
config file. Now I discovered some other things :

when I reply to most posts in that list, the correct posting style is
used. And then it is also used when I try to compose a message from
scratch (using 'm') instead of the .* style.

Now on some message in the list, when I answer them, the list's
posting style is not used. Although the "To" header matches the
posting style, the .* one is used. And then the .* one is used for
subsequent mails (using 'm').

It seems I have two problems here : first one is that composing a mail
with 'm' uses the last used posting style. Second is that replying to
some posts in the list takes the .* posting-style although it should
match the other one.

Does that make sense ?
