I think what's going on here is that David's email software explicitly sets a Reply-To header in his posts (many email apps don't). There's a setting in Mailman called first_strip_reply_to which will strip out any Reply-To headers before adding the list Reply-To, and I'll bet Henry has this set to No. As a result, Mailman *adds* the list address to the Reply-To instead of replacing David's address. If Henry set this to Yes, all replies would be addressed just to the list.

Funny, I had sort of half-noticed that some of my replies were addressed just to the list and some to the list and the poster, but I hadn't thought about it until you mentioned it.

Aaron.
