It just so happens that Jenn over on the Volunteers list was just
explaining why the linuxchix lists don't engage in "reply-to
munging," where the mailing list software changes the reply-to
header to be the mailing list address.

There are arguments for reply-to munging:
	http://www.metasystema.org/essays/reply-to-useful.mhtml
and against reply-to munging:
	http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html

Jenn agrees more with the arguments against reply-to munging.

Many mail user agents have a feature that allows users to reply to a
list easily.  Which mail client are you using?  Maybe we can help
you figure out how to use this feature in your software.
