Unfortunately, this list does not add a replyto: field so the only way
of getting things to the list is with reply all.... or spend time
messing with all the header fields.
I thought most email clients have supported reply-to-list based on
List-id for ages?
It's not so much the mail client as the list settings and the headers it
adds to the email (though some clients are broken with regards to this).
For me, using the Sylpheed client, a simple reply comes back to the list,
while a reply-all goes to the sender with a cc: to the list, which would
cause the original sender to get the message twice. When replying to a
list, you hardly ever want to reply-all.
Nor mally, a simple reply works for me but for some posts, a reply just goes
back to the sender. For those, if I catch them, I start again with a
reply-all and delete all but the list normally. When I don't catch it, I end
up sending driect and not to the list. In those cases, I hopefully catch it
later and send again to the list the second time.
I have not investigated if this occurs when people cc the list instead of
having the mail sent to the list.
all the best,
