I would simply like to give a patch along these lines being included into
mutt a very strong +1.
I'm very surprised that mutt doesn't already include such a feature - in
fact it can hardly be called a feature... if there's a 'list-reply' cmd,
it only makes sense that there be a 'list-mail'/'list-new' cmd as well.
Editing headers and/or creating custom hooks in order to provide such a
common action seems kinda lame...
( I'm not subscribed to mutt-dev, but I just had to respond in favor to
this patch )
