User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:27.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/27.0 (Beta/Release) Build ID: 20140212131424 Steps to reproduce: Looked high and low for a keyboard shortcut that invokes the 'Smart Reply' behavior Actual results: Couldn't find one Expected results: Found a way to change CTRL-R to act just like the Smart Reply button, or, found a new keyboard shortcut to invoke it. I would personally like to see a new keyboard shortcut that invokes the Smart Reply button... For example: CTRL-ALT-R could be it When used, if the message in focus has List headers, it invokes Reply List, if not, it invokes regular Reply.
Ctrl + Alt can't be used in key combos, since as I recall, it causes issues with entering special characters (or something like that, anyway).
Hmmm, ok, then maybe just an option to 'Use Smart Reply for CTRL+R' keyboard shortcut' or something like that?

Vote for this! Please make this possible.

In a corporate environment Reply-All is pretty much a default behaviour, with "reply to sender" being rather an exception and mistakes of excluding previously cc'd addresses could be costly. Inability to do that seriously hurts Thunderbird adoption as a business tool.

Of course, Reply to all should be the default behavior for multi-recipient email.

Well.. I just read the sources and now I get why its "Opened 9 years ago" for this request :)
