Reply-To-List only works if the replied-to message has the appropriate
list headers, which is not always the case, e.g. if the message was
itself a reply that wasn't sent using Reply-To-List. In other cases, you
can use Reply-To-All. In any case, use some kind of Reply in order to
keep the threading straight (keeping the same Subject line is
irrelevant).

OK, assuming "Ubuntu One" is a different machine that was temporarily
unavailable, that makes sense.
