I don't understand the argument that forcing "Reply-to" to be back to the list eradicates a list participant's ability to get the reply on their preferred email address. Presumably they replied to the list via this address. By forcing "Reply-to" to the list address, all subscribers should receive the reply in the way they specified when they subscribed to it. What am I missing?
