Most e-mail programs have two buttons for replying:ordinary "Reply" and "Reply to all". You're supposed to use "Reply to all" if you want to reply to the list.
Well, I think the most common use case for a mailing list is to reply back to the list, isn't that the whole point?
Personally I find it annoying that I get two copies of each reply to one of my posts, one that is filtered into the mailinglist folder because it has the correct X-Mailing-List header and the other just sits there in my inbox, wasting both bandwidth and disk space in the process.
Besides, the if the Reply-To thing is so dangerous, why do most other mailing lists do it?
