The easiest (and most accurate) answer: no.

Actually, MySQL does not work that way. And it's been several
years since I posted to any of the Apache lists, but I do seem to
remember that being the case there. It was annoying. It's so much
more intuitive to know that hitting "Reply" goes to the individual,
whereas "Reply-All" will, as the option suggests, reply to all.

Correct.... but what's the problem? We're all only receiving one
copy of the email, I'm sure. We've done it this way from the
beginning, and have no intention of changing it.
