It might be that the list administrators/moderators have decided that
the don't want the reply-to being set. Most list management software
allows for changes of that field to make the list work in ways they
want. It might be worth posting on the wishlist to see if you can get
LISTSERV's headers added to the specials - mailing list feature. Off
the top of my head I cannot remember the address for it, I'm sure it
is mentioned in the list information (see the URL at the bottom of
this email). To be even more helpful, you could include a sample of
the headers from LISTSERV for the RitLab developers to they know what
they're looking for.
