Description David Escott 2005-02-03 23:14:44 UTC
I often find that I need to follow up a previous response I made to some
email, but I haven't kept the original email that was sent to me, and all I
have is my response to that person. So I find the email in the Sent folder
and press reply. About halfway through the email I will realize that
Reply="Reply to Sender" and Sender=Me. It would be a nice feature if Evo
was intelligent enough to realize that I rarely want to reply to myself and
in these situations would ask me what to do (the natural choice seems to be
reply to recipient).

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Find an email you sent in Sent Mail.
2. Reply to this mail.
3. You end up composing an email to yourself. 

Expected Results: Why are you writing an email to yourself? You probably
meant to reply to the recipient not yourself.
