It is not your fault. Several people (six so far) were tripped up by
the Reply-To: header on the list while trying to reply to Randy's
request for information. And several I recognize as experienced
mailing list users. This trips up users both experienced and new.
The list has Reply-To: set to the list. Which is really, really bad
for mailing lists. Six of you have experienced why. Countless of us
experienced it vicariously through you.

See this essay on the subject which does a better job of summarizing
the problem than I could.

If the list manager is listening, can that pesky header be removed?
It is only going to be a continuing source of trouble.
