That's a result of Reply-To pointing to the list, which is

That's fine for something like the swap list, where almost all
replies are sent off-list, but here 99.9% of the replies go to the
list. I think in this case it makes a lot more sense to have the
reply link point to the group rather than the individual.
"Reply link"? Doesn't your webmail app have Reply All?
Frankly, I don't care if the list server sets a field suggesting that
replies go to the list or if your mail client honors that suggestion,
as long as (a) the field isn't Reply-To, and (b) you don't let private
mail intended for me be sent to the list and archived.
