- When one hits "r" from the index screen or while reading an item,
- one means "reply to whatever originator/sender/reply-to address is
- in the header of this item".
-
- But other than laboriously rewriting the address on the headers
- screen, there's no (simple) way to specify a different address.
- And it's so much easier to specify the addr while one can still see it
- in an item or so, whereas a twitch of the finger can send the item to
- the wrong addr if this action has to be delayed till after writing the
- item...
-
- In the doc I have access to, the "r" command is explained, but there
- seems to be no "R" command. And "R" isn't recognized by this version
- of elm.
-
- Request:
- What about supporting "R" as a command where one can specify the address
- one wishes to use? Or alias, of course.
- If already on the wishlist, then add me as pro-voter. ;-)

- Regards.
