the reply-to field should _not_ be set by any mailing list. the reply-to field is to be used by the sender of the message... p.e. example you can then send a mail to the mailing list and force the replys to go to you directly - great for surveys. So a mailing list should not mess with this field. There's a "reply-to-all" button in every email program, use that. And all those people complaining "no need to cc me, i'm on the list": i do not know wheter you are on the list or not - so just install a dupe filter, then you'll get the mail only once. That's not too hard... > so used to it just working that force of habit has me occasionally > sending the reply before correcting the address.

Decent Mail programs like mutt do even have some list-reply feature. This will allow you to reply to known lists with a single keypress... and mutt does have an option to ignore the reply-to's of all those misconfigured lists... And do search with google for "reply munging considered harmful".
