The reason has to do with "reply" and "reply to all" with the email
client/system I am using and prefer to continue using for now.

Being subscribed to several lists, I find some variation between them
regarding the headers they provide and how my "reply" feature works.

Those that provide "Reply-to: somelist" act as expected and place the
list address in the To: field.  Those that do not
(users@spamassassin.apache.org included) find the address of the
poster rather than the list in the To: field.

While this is not a new issue, I do occasionally fail to correct the
address issue and an email goes astray. '

I'm aware that "modern" clients can deal with this and there are more
"practical" solutions, but I view this as an opportunity for "exercise"
and perverse amusement.

Does not appear to be something that can or should be done in SA, just
exploring possible avenues, or, abandoning the idea completely.

If you want this done for everybody on the system then modifying your MTA is the way to go (EG: at the postfix/sendmail level). If you just want to do it just for your own messages then some kind of custom delivery filter (EG procmail) would be the way to go.
