Look I'll vote for not changing the subject line; headers are wonderful for sorting.
However, when I wish to reply -to the list-, I get a choice of either -to the sender- or -to the list, sender AND anyone else the bloody sender sent it to- instead of simply replying -to the list-. While the wonderful doc that everyone links to regarding why -not- to munge the reply-to header, they fail to consider the normal way things work: people discuss list stuff on the bloody list, not off the list, not to the author only(reply sender), and not to everyone else the author thought to send a message to (reply-to-all functionality). Based on this, a -list- is different than a normal message; the -list- is a discussion group and responses should be filtered into that group. For the argument that the person replying will lose the proper path back to the sender, or mistake sending a personal message to a list, simply read "from" and manually type that into the "to" field. If a person is not using a valid "From" address, yet IS using a valid Reply-to, then this person is rather strange. Until my mail client gives me a "reply to list ONLY" command, I vote for changing reply-to to BE THE LIST. To the person who said "Learn to use gmail" well thats nice, when the only way I can -reply to the list- is to manually delete whatever the hell it decides to shove into the reply headers, and manually type in [EMAIL PROTECTED] Why not reply to all? Because im rather sure I don't want to reply to the author twice (as he apparently is on the list) and I don't want to reply to anyone else the author sent the mail to. There appears to be no other way to use this client than simply 1 or all, not simply 'list'.
