Well, here, all mails are "From:" the person who sent it, which makes
sense, as the list server just re-sends them.

Then your mail program doesn't seem to have it. In "mutt", if I hit
"r" for "reply", I reply to the sender, i.e. to whoever is in "From:",
unless it's overruled by "Reply-To:". When I hit "g" for
"group-reply", I reply to all mailaddresses in the header (From:, Cc:)
and if I hit "L", I do a "list-reply", i.e. I reply to the mailing
list (though I have to tell mutt to which mailing lists I'm
subscribed). As I said, great functionality - pity that not all mail
clients have it.
Cheerio,
Thomas
