My apologies!  I had explicitly set Reply-To, and expected the mailing
list software to _not_ replace it.

Both Reply-To and List-Id are RFC standard headers.  Some email clients,
such as mutt that I use, have a "reply to list" option, but not all
email clients do.  As you say Mail-Followup-To never became a standard,
but more email clients obey that than have a "reply to list".  Go
figure.

SPF broke mailing lists from the start, and we are all paying for it
with kludgey workarounds that only half work.

Wietse:  Can the mailing list software be changed in two separate ways:

1.  Do not add the original sender to Reply-To.  It is expected that
someone sending to a mailing list is also reading the list unless they
explicitly state otherwise.  A Reply-To that includes both the mailing
list and the original sender causes the original sender to get duplicate
emails of every reply.  This is contrary to long-standing mailing list
etiquette.

2.  If an email to the list has an explicit Reply-To, do not replace it.

Thank you.
