This has been beat to death on this list.  It recurs three or four
times a year.

The list does *not* add/append the 'Reply-To:' header.  *Some*
individuals add the 'Reply-To:' header themselves via their email
client.  Mutt has that ability.  Since I am satisified with mutt, I do
not recall specifically which others do, probably kmail will.

The 'Reply-To:' header is considered bad by some and good by others
with many arguemnts both ways.  *This* list does not support it.  Some
email clients provide a key-stroke "Reply to list" function.  I know
that kmail and mutt have this capability.

Ultimately your choice is to manually enter the correct addressing if
you intend to continue to use your present email client, or you may
change email clients to one with other capabilities.
