Comment (by hinder):

 In my email client, I can either click Reply or Reply All.  Neither of
 these do what I want when the Reply-To is set to the original sender.

 Reply: Sends the email to the original sender - in the vast majority of
 cases I want to send to the list (and we want to encourage discussion on
 the list)

 Reply-All: Sends the email to the list AND the original sender.  I don't
 know if this is just an Apple Mail quirk, but it means that when I receive
 such emails, they do not have the List-ID header and so don't get filtered
 into the right folder, meaning they stay in my inbox and are separated
 from the main thread.

 If Reply-To is set to the list, I can just click Reply and all is well.
 If I want to send just to the original sender, it means a bit of copy and
 paste, but that is the rarer case.
