What about Outlook Express, which has a choice of "Reply" or "Reply All". 
What these do depends on how the reflector is set up my the owner. Sometimes 
"Reply" goes just to the individual whose post is being answered and NOT to 
all reflecvtor members..... with "Reply All" going to all reflector members. 
That seems best to me, because the meanings are obvious.  However, some 
reflectors are set up differently, and to send only to the poster being 
answwered requires cutting and pasting his address.   I think that's a pain. 
It's easy to remember that "Reply" goes to ONE,  and "Reply All" goes to 
ALL. (This response was sent using "Reply All")
my 2 cents....
