That is a pity.
Both Netscape 4 and Mozilla 1.0 had two buttons,
marked "Reply" and "Reply All".
I'm very disappointed if newer MUAs have dropped this ability.

OK so I frequently pressed the wrong button, just as, now that I use pine
instead, I often press N instead of Y, or vice versa when it asks
"Reply to all recipients?".
I've come to the conclusion that there is nothing that user interface
design can do to protect the user who, when asked "do you really want to
do that ?", can reply "yes" without engaging brain.
