No, they just have to work harder than people with competent MUAs, and
won't get much sympathy from me as listmaster, that's all. Their MUAs
are missing an important, well-designed, *ancient* feature for
handling list traffic, and that's not my fault.
No List-Reply appears to be the case for Thunderbird (there may be an
add-on that I am not aware of; I had a bad experience with Lightning so
I stay away from add-ons). However, Thunderbird allows you to read this
list on gmane. In that case, a simple reply goes to the newsgroup. And
I like the fact that I don't have list emails in my Inbox. I suppose
there is some way to tell how many xemacs-beta users use gmane regularly
vs. email.
