Hi Ulrich, Great to see things moving again!

Should we set these to t by default? Most users won't bother
otherwise.

Yeah, that sounds right.

Ok, that sounds Thunderbirdish. But I think
vm-reply-ignored-reply-tos is a very confusing name. I never knew
what it was for. Why don't we rename it to
vm-reply-to-mangling-mailing-lists?

Cheers,
