I'm going to assume you meant to post to the list, and send there myself. For security reasons, Mailman lists do not munge reply-to. Frequently messages contain private information (IP addresses, domain names, email addresses, and even passwords) that the sender would not want broadcasted to a publicly archived list.

How do you try to subscribe that address? By web or by mail? In the admin page Privacy Options, there is a ban_list option near the bottom of the page (this is version 2.1.21, I believe yours was older so there may be variations). AFAIK that is the only way to ban an address from subscribing in "stock" Mailman. Make sure that the member is not in that list. I believe you reported that you have cleared out that list already, in which case it's possible that you didn't click the Submit button at the bottom of the page, and it's still there. I guess it's barely possible that you cleared the ban_list for a different list than the one you're trying to subscribe that address to. If the web interface reports an empty ban list and you attempted to subscribe by mail, it's possible that there are two Mailman installations, one handling mail, and the other web (and this one has no effect on actual list operation). Multiple installations can arise for a number of reasons such as an incomplete upgrade where either the mailserver or the webserver was not properly configured. Otherwise, I don't know what's going on. Perhaps Mark has an idea.
