Please apologize, I am used to other mail client where clicking on
"Reply" just rely to the list by default.

The only special configuration I have in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d is a file
to avoid debconf prompts on update:
Dpkg::Options {
   "--force-confdef";
   "--force-confold";
}

Absolutely sure that I did not have any update notifications since
install (2 months ago). As I did not installed gnome metapackage but
instead installed each packages manually, I may have missed an important
package.
