I like the feature (at the emacs level). Doing this with "--format=one"
isn't correct though. This new functionality should be orthogonal to
format, (for example, one might want --format=headers-only and still
reply only to the sender).

How about:

	--reply-to=sender
vs.
	--reply-to=all	# Which would be the default

Also, the patch should update the documentation for "notmuch reply",
(both in notmuch.c and notmuch.1).

Thanks for sharing this.

Perfectly. Keep up the good work.

We don't actually require signed-off-by lines in the notmuch project. I
know the notmuchmail.org website currently points to the git project's
patch submission guidelines. We should really write our own such
guidelines, (which would be dramatically simpler than those from the git
project).
