It's not configuration in that case. It is pure data corruption.

More munging?

Since you're using Mutt as your MUA, just set ignore_list_reply_to and
you're done.
With this set, and as long as you have added the list (via 'list' or
'subscribe' in your rc file), Mutt will reply to the address specified
in the From: header if the Reply-To: header has been corrupted by crap
mailing list software {,admins}.
