It depends on your view as to whether it is a problem. If the reply-to goes to the sender instead of the list then all of those people who mistakenly send to the list when they meant to send to the individual will be happy. However, all of those people who are expecting to reply and add to the public discussion on the list now have the potential to mistakenly send to the individual and add nothing to the public discussion.
Since posting to the list is meant for public consumption then the expectation is that the replies would be meant for public consumption. Private discussions spawned from the list are not the primary purpose of the list and therefore replies should go to the list.
After having said all of that, I am not sure if I really care whether the reply goes to the sender or the list. I will just check who I am sending it to before I send it.

All,
Understand that this is a discussion group, but I agree with Richard and many others, when you say "reply to sender" it should go to sender and not the list. I belonged to couple other discussiongroups and they used to have same problem initially and they have now reconfigured. It works fine. So there is a way to change and this is not the only option we have currently. Just a thought!
Thanks.

I would prefer that the default reply be addressed to the sender of the message, and not to the list. But this discussion will recur less often when email clients give the sender the option, rather than blindly follow the way the list is configured.
