it is a configuration option of the mailing list. Most people think
that the reply_to field should point to the poster and not to the
mailing list:
- http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html
Others disagree:

I personally prefer that people answer to the mailing list
whenever they have more than 0 bits of information. Anyway, 
I just changed that option. Let's see how it works.
