False, since the List IS correct configured. Sometimes it is required
to send PMs for which is the <Reply-To>. I always send messages to the
list using <Reply-To-List> and since this is a technical Mailinglist and
NOT a "dummy" user forum, listmembers should use appropriated MUAs which
supporting it.
Also there is header called "Mail-Followup-To: which works wonder...
If you want to get PMs too, set it to:
Mail-Followup-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], users@spamassassin.apache.org

Sorry, but currently I am DoS'ed by nearly 200.000 backscatters and
arround 2 GByte in my main E-Mail I use here to post and I had to SPAM
all of my customers to send Mails currently only to a "hidden" E-Mail.
Currently I am very angry, since I am working mobile and over GSM/GPRS
and fillilling up my personal account with useless messages which force
me to download the messages twice...
Note: My SIM is currently blocked by my GSM Provider Bouygues Telecom
because the backscatter shit has produced an invoice of over
3000 Euro while I was in hospital and I can not more read my
<linux4michelle> account...

Forcing me to set "Reply-To:" on all Mailinglists I am on, mean, that I
I have to create 168 extra send-hooks in mutt...
If I start mutt from my Nokia, it take already 30 seconds to start up
because heavy configurations, but forcing users to do things because a
handfull peoples do not want to use reliabel software/MUAs is more then
annoying.

Since I get "legitim" PM's on my mailinglist messages, those peoples
then have always to remember, that the Mail goes to the list and if they
forget to change it, they send my business messages to the list which I
do not like...
This problem was already mentioned by someone...
