 I think it might be worth to discuss the point you make.
 
 In fact I should have pointed you to this newer article:
 
 http://woozle.org/~neale/papers/reply-to-still-harmful.html
 
 which explains why the discussion ended in 2001:

Thanks for your reply, Ryan. Sorry for not having answered before.

I need to read the standard first and then I’ll give you a reply.

But I have the impression, as Chris already pointed out, that the
standard wasn’t written to explain mailing lists.

I promise a reply when I read the standard.

 I had noticed you used Thunderbird from the header,
 
 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686;
  rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/24.1.
 
 Thunderbird gives me an option to reply to list, but if I simply
 reply, reply goes to the original sender.
 
 https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Help_Documentation:Mail-Followup-To_and_Mail-Reply-To
 
 may help you in this respect ( possibly combined with a separate identity)

Thanks for searching for this. I have found it also, but I’m afraid that
the features mentioned at
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Help_Documentation:Mail-Followup-To_and_Mail-Reply-To#Configure_Thunderbird
aren’t available in Thunderbird 24.1.

 As I said, with Claws Mail ( Linux or Windows ), hitting Reply gives the
 List address.  In other words it is aware of what the reply to address
 should be.

But Claws Mail isn’t strictly right there. Replies should be addressed
to the sender (specified either in the From: or the Reply-to: fields).

I agree that I wouldn’t complain if Thunderbird would do the same, but
simply because I would had worked around the issue.

 And although I tend to forget to select replying to list, replying to
 the “From:” field is the right thing to do.
 
 Normally yes, but in this instance it is the LIST Server that copies you the
 message. The original sender ( who posts to the list server ), is not
 posting to you personally.  Right?

I agree, but this would be a reason to set a proper reply-to field.

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo

 Dear list,
 
 would it be possible that the default reply to a message from this
 list would be the list itself and not its original sender?

To the best of my knowledge Pablo, this is what already happens.  What
does web.de usually give you as the return address? 

My mail client - claws mail - always decodes correctly, giving me the
list address as the return address.


Chris.
