Angel,

I have seen times when the email client uses the 'Sender:' field (which
contains the list-owner address) rather than the 'Reply to:' field (which
has the listname or senders address, depending on the list configuration).

I'm not sure why the client (appears you are using OE or Outlook!) does
this, but it does! I'm using OE and have not seen this happen whe I reply to
this list. But at least one infrequent member, has had the same thing happen
and when it does, it looks like the message came not from him, but
'list-owner'.
