Kmail
replay icon. defoutl action is "replay (R)".
when replaying to normal mail means "replay to author (Shift + A)"
when replaying to mail-list mail menas "replay to mail list (L)"

the problem:
replay icon does not chnage, when the action mening chnages. the replay icon has multiple meanings depending on the selected mail. the user has no way to know what will the raplay action do. it has to try it.

in may opinion a better solution would be, to change the icon, not just the action.
