If you are polling the dev.acpi_lid.0.state value, see /etc/devd.conf 
for examples of ACPI events notification, so you could invoke the need 
actions when lid is open/closed.

As for the reply policy, I don't think there's one, so I just press 
"Reply all" in Thunderbird -- if someone doesn't want to be answered 
directly, they could (and usually do) set the Reply-To to the list.
