decided to stop blaming others and to set your reply to field to point to the list instead of *TELLING OTHER PEOPLE to REPLY to YOU*....
That's what the list rules are broken. They give advice that is contrary to mandated RFC standards, that disregards the fact that whether one gets "duplicate"[sic] responses is the choice of the author being responded *to*.
Care to state which RfC you refer to? ==== http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email#Header_fields Reply-To: Address that should be used to reply to the message. ==== http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5322 ==== 3.6.2. Originator Fields The originator fields of a message consist of the from field, the sender field (when applicable), and optionally the reply-to field. [..] When the "Reply-To:" field is present, it indicates the address(es) to which the author of the message suggests that replies be sent. ==== If you reply to a message with a reply-to Header, you should reply to the address(es) specified in that header. You need not reply to _ONLY_ that address(es). You are free to e.g. also add To/CC this mailinglist.
