Yeah, there are (seemingly) infinitely long emails and forum type entries on
this very topic, but ... from saved posts I have from our list, it seems that
the Reply-To has been munged to the list address for a long time, so we're not
asking for a change from existing practice. Some lists don't even set the
Reply-To. Sylpheed is smart enough to look for the List-Id(if present) and use
that when you press the reply key. If you need the actual sender, press reply to
all and then delete the list-id.
