There is no "Reply-To" header, so I'm not sure what Claws and other e-mail
clients are keying the "Reply" off of - possibly the "To:" header, since that is
why doing a "Reply All" in Thunderbird adds the list address to the "Cc:" field.
 Possibly Claws looks at the "Precedence: list" header, and in the absence of a
"Reply-To" header, it resorts to the "To:" header.

However, replying to the "To:" header is certainly not the default behavior for
many e-mail clients.  Mailman can be set to add a "Reply-To" header, so maybe
there was some reason why the Squirrel Mail list admin opted not to set this???
