A "Followup" is in some sense a combination of Reply All and Send Again. Like Reply All it quotes the original message and subject. Like Send Again it keeps the recipients fields identical (in most cases) to the original message, which Reply All does not do. (Reply All goes to the original sender only, and cc's all the others.) Another person has likened it to a "Forward All" which is not a bad description, although not quite right. Take care, --greg (from the developer)

I've tested this on a variety of emails with to's, cc's and bcc's and whether I press Reply All or the new Followup button, the resulting replies look the same. Can someone help me see what the benefit of this is? Thanks. I’m sorry but I just can’t see any difference between choosing Reply All and Followup.

Unfortunately it seems it's non-trivial to do in a Mail bundle. It would be great to find the source code for a simple example, or someone to help, but I haven't found that yet. Any volunteers? :) I would love to have a toolbar button. Unfortunately it seems it’s non-trivial to do in a Mail bundle.

Any chance of making the Follow Up action as a button for the toolbar? I tend to go and hit reply in the toolbar and start editing the email before realising that FollowUp is installed hehe.
