Well, by default ezmlm doesn't set the reply-to; there are even
ranting articles to be found on the net stating that any mailinglist
software that does this is broken and should be banned, burned and
what else not for tampering with the original mails of people sending
them (assuming they set a Reply-To at all). Their point of view is
that when replying to the whole list, it should be the conciously made
decision of the creator of the mail to use 'Reply-to-all' in order to
do so.
However one can easily make ezmlm set the reply-to on outgoing
mailinglist mails, and when combining the original ezmlm with
ezmlm-idx extensions you get an even more powerfull mailinglist tool.
BTW: I prefer mailing lists set the reply-to to the list, and most do;
recently I even had a situation where I forgot to use 'reply-to-all'
because I was replying to a message in the only list I have that
doesn't have the reply-to set to the list.
