Hi Duncan, I use Pegasus mail, too. What's causing others a problem is you have the default Reply-to: field filled in, and that overrides the default reply to the list header the list server usually inserts into the e- mails it's broadcasting to the subscribers.
If you absolutely need to have the default reply-to address for other purposes, then you'll have to live with others frequently responding privately to you when they intend to respond to the list. Yes, it's the responsibility of the sender to notice where their mail is about to zip off to, but mistakes will be made distressingly often regardless. If you want to turn it off, click Tools > Options > Sending Mail, then delete your address from the 'Default "reply-to" address' field. Then the list will insert its reply to the list header line in your messages. I was having/creating this same problem a few years back until somebody pointed it out to me. This was the solution.
