Even in such case it should use support@lists.openmoko.org instead of gmane.comp.handhelds.openmoko.user. That was bug of mailing software and I've reported it.
About Reply-To header. Such configuration is less usable (http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html). I have now 2 buttons which do exactly the same. What worst one of them changes behaviour - either it post to author (on some mailing lists and all other mails) or to group (on other mailing lists). Additionally it violates RFC 2822 (point 3.6.2): "When the "Reply-To:" field is present, it indicates the mailbox(es) to which the _author_ of the message suggests that replies be sent." (my underline) and therefore cannot by stated as 'correct' (for example - I don't intend to recive private mails on list so my messages should not have it included). RFC 2369 specifies correct headers (namly List-Post) and they should be used instead.
