Nothing important, just for the records.

Reading (again) this thread: I extracted from the respective "debate" (I mean 
the links posted by MarkusN [1][2]) that the "Reply to Mailing-List" button 
(at least in KMail) adds some "special" header or something like that which is 
the correct way to _reply_ in the list.

In addition, in the past I had asked Markus to remove some posts of mine (due 
to a silly mistake) which was a really time-consuming and difficult process 
(judging by Markus replies back then -- but I am so grateful he helped me out 
-- thanks again Markus).

So, I felt for a moment bad thinking that I could have brought even more 
problems in the list. Nevermind, it is good to know that there are no problems 
using the Reply-to-All button.
