This problem comes up every few weeks. The admins refuse to
acknowledge that the correct behavior for replying to a message on the
list is to reply back to the list. Instead, they cling to some purist
position about "munging" Reply-to: headers, even though that results in
a default behavior that is incorrect: clicking "Reply" in most email
clients only replies to the sender (off-list), while "Reply All"
replies to the sender, to the list, and to anyone else CC'd on the
post. Neither behavior is correct.
I've debated this in the past here, and the admins seem pretty
resistant to making things work to the benefit of the subscribers. They
prefer to remain true to some purist position even at the cost of
making the list inefficient and unwieldy.
