Subject: Re: Change in rmail-reply

Message-ID: <597051.6409.qm@web83201.mail.mud.yahoo.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 28265.24804.qm@web83202.mail.mud.yahoo.com

One thing I don't like about this command is the potential for misuse - unless this is one of the intended uses.
The problem is that the recipient of the message may have no idea that the message is not really received 
from what it claims to be, if the recipient MUA does not look at the resend headers.  This might look like 
deception. Granted it is already possible to do it by other means, but the question is whether it should be 
made easier to do so.
