The current behavior is intentional, and is generally the behavior of most of the GNU lists. See this link: http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html. The idea is that you should get in the habit of hitting 'reply-to-all' if you want to reply to the list; if the sender is also on the list, then they can manipulate the Reply-to of their original post, or use the list subscription settings to avoid receiving duplicates. I'm not likely to change the list behavior any time soon. While we're on the topic of list behavior, it is preferable to avoid top-posting. It is easier to read an isolated mail in the archive if it contains appropriate context in reading order, rather than replies on top of the text being responded to. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
