This is true.

Apart from Mail-Followup-to, there is also the List-Post header which
points to the address of this list, see RFC 2369. IMHO everyone who
posts on Debian lists should use an MUA that supports this or some other
reply-to-list command, else they get mad; using reply-all and stripping
out unwanted addresses is not really fun.
