After looking into it a little further, it does indeed seem like email
responses, which I've completely disabled in slrn at the moment. My main focus
is making echomail and netmail work as good or better than Golded, then I can
use it as a replacement. After that is done, I can then look into the
configurable options for usage of a text based mail client as well as lynx for
URLs and whatnot. Those kinds of things probably wouldn't get used much,
though.

I'll have to test it out at some point. If it can only be done in an article,
then out the window goes replying to an echomail message via netmail as well. I
would hope this feature would be available in the same manner when using
followup as well, but maybe not.

Regards,
Nick
