I missed their replies but in case one of them didn't mention it take
a look at the GeekGameBoard project at: <http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/GeekGameBoard/

You can reply to all, reply to sender or reply to both. Unless you're
recieving mail from the list is a digest in which case you have to
select the body of the message you wish to reply to and copy & paste
that into a new message; then move the "From:" and "To:" address out
of the pasted text to the "To:" field of the new message and copy the
"Subject:" text out of the pasted text into the "Subject:" field of
the new email. Now delete all of the pasted text except for any parts
of the body of the text you want to reply to. That text should be
quoted (by selecting that text and then the "Format" menu's, "Quote
Level" -> "Increase" item.
Then type your reply and hit "Send".
The only thing that didn't happen as it should here is that the
Message-ID didn't get copied to the new email. This is important so
that messages get properly threaded. Because I don't know of a way to
do this manually (and because all the above cutting and pasting is a
PITA) I wrote an Apple Script for Mail to do all the above for me. I
just have to select the text in the digest (starting with the
"Message: " line) down to the end of the text I want to quote and run
my script; it does all the above AND properly sets the message ID. If
anyone is interested reply to me privately and I'll send it to you… or
if there's enough demand I'll put it somewhere online and post it's
URL here.
