In the headers, is the address of the author.
Highlight this address and <copy>
Hit <reply>
Highlight new addressee in the reply post and hit <paste>

This will replace the list's address with the author's address.


An easy way to separate mail is with filters. I have different mail boxes
setup so that each post is directed to them. This way all personal mail
is in the 'IN' box and all pianotech posts are in the 'PIANOTECH' box.
Then there's:
MPT (piano talklist)
E-GROUP John Musslewhite's list)
MMD (Mechanical Music Digest)

It's all presorted.

Then I have <archive mail boxes> which stores the posts which i want to 
keep for
future referrence, this way the 'in' boxes do not get cluttered or lengthy.

Mail Management, Eudora makes it easy.
