Ooops, sorry, if I said "better", I meant "better suited for the
particular case".

literally always something to release...

There's nothing to fix. That's where the mail comes from. If I wanted
replies to another address, I'd specify a Reply-to:.
(Or do you _only_ see <langausd@fachschaft> ? Then you must be at uni and
it's not my MTA, but mailgw.informatik who shortened the address ;-)
