Hi,

i have been using fud with mailing list now for nearly an year, and the stuff actually works very well.

There is a small problem though. When FUD sends a message to the mailing list, it doesn't set the REply-To unless the actual message replied to is from teh mailing list.

Actually, FUD should check the entire thread for any message that contains the Mail-Message-Id, and use the first ID while sending mails to the list. Otherwise the mailing list thread gets badly broken, and it becomes virtually impossible to keep track of what's happening.

The problem happens if people make consecutive posts in the forum without an intervening post from the mailing list. Then the last replied to message doesn't contain a MEssage-ID, and fud just mails without any "REply-To flag".

Actually this shouldnt' create that much overhead since u have to only search one single thread, and use the Mail-Message-ID of the first mail it encounters. And this will only be executed for people who want the mailing list. So totaly it won't effect the normal forum performance too.

So can this be done?

i would really appreciate this feature. Mutt with a lot of broken threads is very difficult to manage.

Thanks in advance.
