Yes, automatically... if the list software cannot do it natively, then
someone could write a custom handler (at least in mailman you can do
this, if exmlm can't then thats another reason to change) that would
accept posts from non-members, but with some extra processing where it
modified the Reply-To headers.

The reason allowing non-members to post is a problem (endless questions
and explanations) is *because* these messages are currently handled
manually.
