The reason is that, like probably most of us, when I click to hit reply, my "Reply to" address always, invariably, gives my personal email rather than the TDE mailing list. Even though I am using my custom template for the TDE mailing list, with all the other fields properly filled in, when I hit reply (even if, on both ends, sender and receiver are using that template, I still end up sending out my personal email as "Reply to"; so that when the person on the other end replies, then I get two emails, one sent to the mailing list, the other sent to my own email. This snag rather defeats the idea of using templates, and even more messes up the whole concept of a common mailing list address that we all share. So I am forking off this thread specially for kmail templates & feature requests. There are one or two other minor tweaks that I have in mind. This seemed like the right time to bring it up.
