The maillist software also sets other headers then the reply-to
header. Fx:
List-Id: synthesizer diy electronics <synth-diy.dropmix.xs4all.nl>
List-Unsubscribe: <http://dropmix.xs4all.nl/mailman/listinfo/synth-
diy>, <mailto:synth-diy-request at dropmix.xs4all.nl?subject=unsubscribe>
List-Archive: <http://dropmix.xs4all.nl/pipermail/synth-diy>
List-Post: <mailto:synth-diy at dropmix.xs4all.nl>
List-Help: <mailto:synth-diy-request at dropmix.xs4all.nl?subject=help>
List-Subscribe: <http://dropmix.xs4all.nl/mailman/listinfo/synth-
diy>, <mailto:synth-diy-request at dropmix.xs4all.nl?subject=subscribe>
Some email clients have a "reply to list" option also. I guess that
option uses either of these headers, properly the List-Post header.
Now that's a hole third way of dealing whit it. Which combined with
seting the list to reply to poster is preferred as it leave the most
options to the user.
Not having that feature in the email client causes extra "work": When
the list is set such that hitting reply send to the poster only, not
the list, then one have to hit reply-all to reply to the list. But
that also involves sending a CC to alot of other folks rather then
just the list. Hence trimming the send To/CC fields really is needed.
But it's not a big issue to me. Just my humble thoughts.

How does it brake?
