   Here is a message posted with Thunderbird with the "X-Comment-To" field filled   
   in.   
      
   This is the only way I could do it with TB, and while it's not super friendly   
   (you'll forget to do it sometimes, probably), it works:   
      
   Settings > Config Editor   
      
     - Search for 'mail.compose.other.header', edit it and put "X-Comment-To"   
   without quotes.   
      
   When you write/reply to a message, in the header there it says "Followup-To     
   >>", hit the ">>" drop down menu, and "X-Comment-To" will be an option to   
   select now. Then, fill it in with who you're writing the message to (yes,   
   manually).   
      
   Unfortunately, I haven't found a way to make this automatic with TB, whereas   
   with slrn I can just use the "set custom_headers "X-Comment-To: All"" to new   
   posts (which may not even be needed), and "set followup_custom_headers   
   "X-Comment-To: %r"" (%r is recipient) right in the config file, and it's   
   always automatic.   
      
   Regards,   
   Nick
