@monsieuricon I have someone that only has gmail available for mail. How can I enable them _easily_ to reply to a thread they weren't Cced on? Do you happen to have an idea?
@brauner @monsieuricon I've wondered that too, both for myself and others, but sadly I've never found a solution. If someone has an approach that works, please share :)
@monsieuricon @securepaul so the issue I often have is that someone wants to comment on a thread (a user of something, for example) and they lack the setup to do so. They often only have the gmail web interface and I want them to just reply to a downloaded mbox from lore. So that I can tell them: ok, go here use that as a one time thing. No larger setup, no complicated configuration setting whatsoever. Maybe I'm dreaming but it would help a lot of people.
@brauner @monsieuricon @securepaul for that I used mutt with a flag (forgot the name right now...) that would load a mbox file, and reply to a specific mail in the thread. It's far from ideal, but worked quite well when I had sporadic patches to comment.
@mpdesouza @brauner @monsieuricon I *almost* added a sentence to my last reply about any answers involving mutt would be immediately discarded :)
I agree that mutt can be useful, in fact I do have some scripts/automations which use it, but I personally dislike the UX. It's 2024, we can do better ;)
@securepaul @brauner @monsieuricon I don't like it as well, just said what's available and currently works. Of course, we deserve better tools :)
