I had the same problem with a different client, with the SGS2, but figured it would be fixed in the S3. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1621373
When an email is sent to a distribution group, there's no way to reply to the group. Instead the reply is only sent to the original sender. There does not appear to be a way to reply all.
To elaborate:
I send an email about bowling on saturday night to [email protected] which goes to all staff members, everyone receives it, all is good. However, Bill wants to reply to the group to suggest that he is a better bowler than everyone in the company, so he taps reply, and sends his email. However, the email ONLY goes to me, not to the whole group. Frustrated, Bill goes back to see how he can reply all to the group, but there is no way to do so.
How can I help Bill reply to the group? Getting Bill to remember to type the group name in, or add the group to his reply is a poor work around.
Is there an alternate app that will allow the extremely complex and bleeding edge function of 'reply all?'

okay! 1st of all let me tell that I am a old win 6 and 6.5 user. Just in July, switched to the world of Android. But still expecting few things as that of my old windows mobile. These are maybe in my new phone but I failed to get it work even I tried lots of googlings!
Well I am a college student so I mostly use group messaging. In frayo I can send 20 per time but now in Gingerbread it's limited to 10. Well it's not the issue. My main issue is the threads. Whenever I send msgs to group it creates a separate group. In my win mobile the grp msgs were getting categories as a conversation with the individual in that grp.
Is there any setting or any app that can place the sent msgs to the respected buddies conversation thread instead of being at one place.
Even is there any way to find out whom I msged in the grp messaging?? Because when I send 10 sms once a time it doesn't show any details except 1st few names of the grp members. So is there any way to find out to whom I msged??
I hope you guys are getting my question.
Waiting for reply.

Adwait
I think, GO Sms could help you. New message-> + contacts -> Group - there u can check your buddy's grup. U have to have defined that group before that U can do this via pc (www.google.com/contacts) or on your phone via some contacts manager.
You don't even need to define a group, in fact. You can check the contacts you wanna send it to. After that, once sent, the messages will be posted into individual contact's threads.

My wife and I upgraded our phones this weekend, and she got an HTC Rezound. She just received a picture message, replied to it, and it automatically replies to everyone the original picture was sent to. She is using Handcent. There was no notification that it was a group convo, and she did nothing different, but the phone replied to everyone in the convo.
Is this a common problem? Perhaps a Handcent problem?

I can only speak for the stock texting app, but it may help. All group texts will display all the recipients of the text in the inbox letting you know it's a group conversation. When replying it will default to all. To respond to an individual in the group, click on the specific text in the thread and an options Window will pop up. There is an option to reply to individual that you can check. You can use this to reply to the original text or to any of the other recipients responses individually.
KORM via the beast known as the Rezound.
Under send message settings it has a send as split thread option.

Is there a way to block all of the group messages that are sent from the iPhone iChat???? Like 8 of my friends have a iPhone so whenever they send a message to the group it comes to be from that person individually but with the heading
"[Subject: New Message]"
And I cannot block them or stop the notifications since I am in the group of the chat. Any suggestions besides asking them to not include me since they will just do so to annoy me lol
Sounds to me like its an MMS message - If I send an MMS message with no subject it comes across the same way.
Can they use the subject field would that help?

If they use change the subject field it won't help block the messages. Even if I select to not auto-receive the MMS messages I still get the notification and every message from the group. I wouldn't mind if they got sent to one entry and it was just a running chat message basically. But every time each contact messages the group I get a individual message from them. So if 8 people are in the Chat I get a message from each of the 8 every time they reply. Has no one else come across this yet?????????????
Seriously. So sick of that feature for every non-iPhone user.
There has to be a fix or a way to block these. You may receive 100 messages in one day, for me at least 100, from the group chat. very very very annoying! Any suggestions
hey guys,
I am trying to setup group chat/mms so i can chat with my friends who have iphones and htc. I read that handcent and gosms pro can do this. However, when i send an outgoing message it send in a group, but their replies come back in the seperate individual user threads. i have the option checked for group mms, but its still not working. Please help!
Thanks
I know about making sure the group MMS box being checked in the settings and it is.
My issue that my two friends that have galaxy s4's whenever they respond to a group message their messages come to me as individual threads, but other peoples goes to the group text.
I have a moto x (but it was doing the same thing on my gnexus).
Other friends all of their messages go to the group (iphone, moto x, htc one).
Any suggestions on what I can try and do?
Thanks,
Edit: Both S4 users came from iphones is that helps.
I'm having the same issue in a group text with my friend's new N5 and my N4. He used to have an iPhone, and our third friend is still using his iPhone, and back then all of my texts would be in the same group thread.
Since my friend upgraded to the N5, only our iPhone friend can see messages in the group thread when sent. When I send messages to the group, I can see my own messages and my iPhone friend's messages, but my N5 friend receives them individually on a different thread (these messages are still marked as being MMS). I have the same problem-- anything my N5 friend sends to the group thread, I receive in the individual thread (also marked as MMS). We are both on T-Mobile and iPhone friend is on Verizon.
Can anyone help us?
That is basically the same thing as mine. Our iPhone friends still receive them all in group messages so they think my phone is broken and i'm just an idiot. It is really hard trying to explain a technical issue to non technical people.
I think it might have something to do with iMessage not being disabled before they got rid of their iphones. I'm still trying to get my buddy to log into his apple account and make sure it is turned off. (Read this might be the issue from lots of google searching) I will report back when we check is apple settings and let you know.
Thanks! We thought this new Hangouts app update that "fixes MMS" would do it, but still having the same issue.
