And some less-sophisticated listservers (one written in Python comes to mind)
/strongly/ encourage the list admin to _not_ munge the headers, causing replies
to go the original poster, not the list. Go figure.
For a true LISTSERVE discussion group, the problem is either a poster who didn't
know what a "Reply-To:" header was used for, and has his mailer fill it in with
his own address just in case, or a poster who is using one of many brain-dead
webmail interfaces that do the same thing automatically (and usually
un-overridably).

Usually this happens because the person you're replying to has a "reply to"
mail header set to their email address, instead of letting it default (to the mailing
list).
