I think this seems a good option. If you switch it off I guess you need to
be ready to get a lot of duplicate mails because a lot of mail clients
don't support reply to list properly, and web-based clients like google
certainly don't.
Personally I got tired of having to manage a mountain of local mail and so
just leave it on the server.... probably bad practice but I really don't
care! With this I found the web interface far more convenient than any
standalone mail client. Also better on the move.. also:
Some think it is better netiquette to reply-all anyway:

Not certain I agree with this tho..

All "replies" should to the sender only. The lists.linuxaudio.org does
not munge the headers. It's up to you and your MUA.
Except for this option in the settings page:
<begin>
Avoid duplicate copies of messages?
When you are listed explicitly in the To: or Cc: headers of a list
message, you can opt to not receive another copy from the mailing list.
Select Yes to avoid receiving copies from the mailing list; select No to
receive copies.
If the list has member personalized messages enabled, and you elect to
receive copies, every copy will have a X-Mailman-Copy: yes header added
to it.
(*) No
( ) Yes
<begin/>
The default is yes! :( The wording is a bit confusing, as it seems to be
favouring MUA's that don't have a List reply, 'L' as far as mutt is
concerned.
