That's consistent with my understanding of the subject.

If you give these certain members from "HR" the ability to "Send As" the DL,
and have it locked down, would that not accomplish what you are looking for?
I.e. E-mail comes from DL. Individual tries to reply, but is not permitted,
so no one gets the reply. Or am I missing something?

Dear DL Members,
We have presented a couple of alternate options, such as creating a
generic mailbox to use to send the message from, so that any reply would not
go to a mailbox belonging to a human being. We even mentioned Steve Hanna's
idea of stating it at the beginning of the message, and at the end of the
message!!
We have restrictions set up on the SDLs. The "concern" is that the
person from HR who needs to be the Original Sender does not want to get any
replies at all. Thus, we are trying to figure out a way to prevent the
recipients from being able to reply to the Original Sender.
Thanks for all the replies.

Are you wishing to keep them from replying to all, replying to the sender,
or both? If you want to keep them from replying to all you can go about it
a couple of ways. First, on the Delivery Restrictions tab of the System DL,
only allow yourself (and any others necessary) to address mail to it.
Second, you can address System DL messages using BCC. Finally - and this is
what I would ALSO do (all 3), only send System DL messages from a specific
mailbox - as in one designated for System messages, Corporate Communication,
etc. Only allow that mailbox to address the System DL. Some of these are
business policy issues.
I believe just trying to limit replies to specific messages will cause you
much more pain than doing it this way.
