I'm afraid I've never used Opera mail. I guess it doesnt yet have the
"smarts" to cope with a mailing list. Maybe you could try asking on an opera
list if someone has a solution? What I used to do on another list, is set up
a filter to put say, all techtalk email in one folder. I then set the
properties on that folder so all replies to emails in that folder get sent
to a specific address.

The kde lists do whats called "address munging". The list automatically
inserts a Reply To: header set to the mailing list address. Linuxchix lists
dont do that. If you want to know why, have a look here:
