I hadn't considered that a Reply-To: address can be plural, which makes perfect sense. A single sentence, perhaps just a reference to other text, covering first_strip_reply_to = No might be in order to pair with your explicit discussion of first_strip_reply_to = Yes. The whole issue is complex, and the measures in Mailman to address it are similarly complex. Your changes to the internal docs are certainly an improvement and probably about as good as can be done with a bad situation. There may be a problem with being _too_ wordy in explaining it. Here's a suggestion: first_strip_reply_to = Yes will remove all the incoming Reply-To: addresses but will still add the poster's address to Reply-To: for all three settings of reply_goes_to_list which respectively will result in just the poster's address, the poster's address and the list posting address or the poster's address and the explicit reply_to_address in the outgoing Reply-To: header. If first_strip_reply_to = No the poster's address in the From: header, if not already included in the Reply-To:, will be appended to any existing Reply-To: address(es). Last sentence added.
