208101 - Reply-all to a sent message should not reply to self

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 85296

(MailNews Core :: Composition, defect)

Description

[Felix Miata]

OS/2 trunk 2003052113; W32 2003052908

To reproduce:
1-Reply to a sent message

Actual results:
1-"From" address in message replied to becomes first "to" address in compose window

Expected results:
1-"From" address in message replied to is nowhere to be found in compose window

Both Netscape 3 and Netscape 4 do as under "expected" above.

I am on Mozilla 1.6 Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040123

1) I agree with the original poster.  This is driving me nuts. It used to work
"correctly" -- I think on Mozilla 1.2 (but don't hold me to that).  It certainly
worked "correctly" on Netscape 4.76

2) Both "Reply" and "Reply to All" have this problem. Using "Reply to All", the
TO gets set to me (the original sender) and the CC gets set to the original
recipient -- which is the person to whom I believe the TO should be set.

3) There may be an appropriate difference between "Reply" and "Reply to All",
but one or the other of them ought to work such that the TO is set to the the
original recipient(s) -- certainly *not* the original sender.

3) I believe that this bug is essentially a duplicate of Bug #85296.
