hey lets just come up with a common way to title the subject so our filters
work all of the time.
eg. RE: perl-dbi-list: ISA inheritance vs. DBI?
or the list bot just include that in the subject no matter what. even if
someone clicks on reply to all or reply or whatever.

No, you misunderstand my complaint.
I'm quite familiar with the reply-to munging arguments, and I fully
subscribe to the side of the fence that condemns reply-to munging, I
don't want that setting changed.
My comment was that I was receiving two copies of the mail where the
first one was addressed to me only, without the list in the Cc: line
anywhere. It looked exactly like a private message. I replied to it,
only to the sender of course since that was the only address in the
headers.
Then an hour later, I would get a copy via the list as well with more
headers than the first copy.
I'm on a _LOT_ of mailing lists and this is the first time I've seen
anything like that. I use Emacs VM and Gnus to read my mail; I know
it's not a puny MUA problem :).
FWIW.
