Incidentally, procmail might be able to offer a fix on the recipient's
side of this.
How about a recipie to filter list mail, run it through formail, add a
"Reply-to:" header (appropriate to the list), and dump the mail to an
appropriate folder. This would give those of us with real mailers a
"your problem, your answer" option for responding to this question.
Peace.
