Hmmm, I have never thought about this but the hint is sensible. I'm
personally using mutt which has the List-Reply feature (L) and as far as
I remember list masters consider this as the recommended way to solve
this. Manually changing the To: field is admittedly booring. Any
volunteer who is also bored by doing so to approach listmaster about
this?

The lists on alioth (developer list) are doing this and my procmail
rules are striping this off. So I'm personally happy with the lack
of this but I could deal with some additional tags. What do others
think about it?
Kind regards
Andreas.
