this confirms your choice.
A) Additional Notes for PINE Users
For PINE users, the following message will appear as you make a
reply:
Use "Reply to:" address instead of "From:"
address? (y/n) [y]
"Reply to:" means the mailing list address (eccclc@onelist.com)
& "From:" means the original sender's address.
As a result, if you want to make a public reply, press 'y', and
for a private reply, press 'n'.
B) Addtional Notes for ELM users
For "elm" users, if you wish to make a private reply,
you must note the original sender's address. After having written
the reply, when the message
And now: s
appears, press "h" to change the "To:" header.
