[Tutor] masking library files

[ugajin at talktalk.net]

I do have a Reply All command, but as in this case, there is no recipient other than myself to be included. Also, hitting the Reply All command seems to generate an alert warning message, when recipients include a mail-list address, and some mail list replies go to the mail-list as recipient rather than the sender by default.     
 


I don't know which mail tool you are using but you should have a ReplyAll command that does that automatically.

If you are using a Desktop mail tool it may even have a mailing 
list mode that detects lists (or allows you to specify them) 
and auto uses replyall...
