Nope--unless you're a computer geek who can decompile C++ and then recompile it with different settings for the button. (I'm not geeky enough to know how, but geeky enough to know it could be done.) I too find that I have to be careful what address shows up in the To: box--I have sent private emails that I intend to post to the mailing list, and I see after your message that the reverse is possible too.

If so, IE is dumber than I thought. In Netscape, the choices are "Reply to Sender" and "Reply to Sender and all Recipients". I usually use the latter, then take out the sender's name, so he/she won't get two copies. Could IE users say whether "Reply to all" really means "reply to everyone who got a copy of this message I'm replying to"? I think it does, but what makes sense and Microsoft are two different things. > > >Is there something I can do to make > >the "Reply to newsgroup" choice work?

Reply to all seems to work like Netscape's.
